I would not change to a dripless stuffing box when a much simpler and
safer option is available.....as David said here before, repack your
existing box with a quality product and you are virtually drip free....I
did mine 6 years ago and it still doesn't drip...and I have checked and
there is no heat on the prop shaft, stuffing box, etc. I never worry
about a catastrophic failure a PSS dripless stuffing box can endure.

switch I just haven’t figured out how I’m going to run the vent line
yet. Any suggestions would be great. Preliminary plan is to run it to
a very small through hull at the top of the transom.
Thanks,
