If all else fails, connect everything back up, loosen bolts holding transmission to engine, run engine, put in gear, pray. Perhaps there will be enough play between the engine and transmission to break the seal. Many years ago I used a similar process to remove stuck cylinder heads. I wasn’t

Brian, Another benefit of replacing the drive plate is that the springs that absorb shock between the engine and tranny can wear their surrounding metal carrier on the plate or break altogether, and if the spring has too much room to move around, it won’t cushion the shock of engagement when

No, not sure what a folding prop is. It's a vdrive and the Paragon trans has a friction brake clamp to engage the reverse when shifted. I didn't know that you had to hold the gear shifter firmly into reverse after shifting...hence the slipping. I learned this after trying to adjust the brake

You have used scopolamine before, so for you it is not an issue, but first time users are well advised to try it out ahead of time if possible. Some people find it makes them really dopey. I like to keep some patches on board though, for those people who insist that they won't get seasick.

Mike, Dramamine (or Bonine) is Meclazine, an oral antihistamine and only needs to be taken 1-2 hours before boating. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMHT0011054/?report=details#side_ef fects Be aware that it interacts VERY poorly with alcohol, so if you or your crew are inclined to crack

Mike — being north of the border, have you tried Stugeron (Cinnarizine)? Although I’m normally not prone to seasickness, the few times I’ve needed something (the first day or so of an open-ocean passage), I’ve had much better luck with that than with Scop. Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V
