Tom, About 5 years ago I had to reposition my strut because the engine and prop shaft were not aligned. Turns out that they were never in alignment. I had to reposition the engine by making new engine mount brackets. But that is another story. I removed the strut and did all of the prep work. The yard positioned and installed the strut. I bedded it in the hull and finished the job. It took about 4 days from start to finish. The job is not difficult and I wish that I would have done the work I paid the yard to do. I found all four bolts that hold the strut to the hull leaking water four years later.
Good luck, Frank C&C 38LF, S/N: 001 Rose City YC Portland, Oregon From: Tom Alessi via CnC-List Sent: Monday, November 21, 2016 12:57 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Tom Alessi Subject: Stus-List Fw: Strut Hey, Recently wrapped a line around my prop/shaft and found some damage and a loose prop strut when the boat was hauled.
