Re: Rudder Stuffing Box Packing Material
That is what I received from Amel last month as well. I cut to length with diagonal cuts. Installed each piece offset about 120 degrees. Carefully pounding each piece down around the shaft. Based on some other information I was very careful when tightening the ring back down to make sure that I did not strip out the threads. A few days of motorsailing down the calm Chesepeake and so far no drips. Will keep checking as we go offshore next. Best regards, Daniel and Lori Carlson on sv BeBe, SM #387
Good day all,
