It is possible that vibration from the propeller problem has
prematurely deformed the seal permanently to allow water in or (less likely) that it allowed water in only when it was in the unbalanced state. There are several very good postings on replacing the prop seal. They include, but are not limited to message 1156, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amelyachtowners/message/1156 Message 1160 and message 1003 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amelyachtowners/message/1003 Bob, Hannalei --- In amelyachtowners@yahoogroups.com, "Dimitris" <dkra@p...> wrote: and I am quite sure now that the problem was due to barnacle growth onthe oil in the main engine drive has become white.
