I was checking out some of the stats yesterday and one boat was over 9 knots!
What were the conditions? that seems to have slowed to about 6 knots now. This
is very cool to dheck in on!! The first boats should be showing up in Newport
on Sunday at the rate they're going.

I have been dealing with exactly that issue since I bought my boat 7 years ago.
It hasn't been an issue and as a backup I have a zinc anode on the shaft about
3/8 from the packing nut just in case it lets loose. I'm sure the keyway is
wearing out as a result but I haven't noticed any increase
Yes I have the same feelings. I also have zincs on the shaft in front of the
strut, I guess it eases the feeling of losing the shaft, provided the zinc
stays put?
Thanks,
Brad

I recently had my transmission out for a rebuild and upon putting it back in
and the boat back together discovered that the propeller shaft coupling is a
little loose on the shaft, maybe 1/8 of rotational movement on the shaft,
like possibly the keyway is worn?. Have tried tightening the set

Brad,
Losing a shaft is a pretty serious event. A 1 hole lets in a lot of water.
If that happens and you don't react quickly and correctly you are risking
the boat and all souls aboard. I would deal with that issue sooner than
later. My 2 cents

Brad,
If you are planning on a typical PNW San Juan's and further north summer cruise
you will be putting many hours on your auxiliary engine. (Summer in the San
Juan's turns sailboats into slow power boats.) Performing the full
shaft/coupling repair now would be a good idea.
If you plan on
at the very least, I would lock tight the set screws. Maybe use nail polish so
they'll break loose easier later when you do need them to...? Danny

What would be your suggestion, CSR, Canal, or Seaview for those repairs?

Brad,
I have used both Seaview West (at the south end of Shilshole) and CSR multiple
times and have been satisfied with the service and quality of work. I had
Calypso delivered to CSR's South Lake Union yard when it was trucked out from
Chicago. She spent 3 months there as we took care of

I have yet to hear good things about Seaview (Martin was the first actually).
But admittedly that's based on a small sample set.
Patrick,
Seaview has had some up and downs, good managers and less so. I have also
heard of some billing/cost issues in the past. I too have heard complaints in
Hi Brad,
Good to hear you have a zinc ahead of the strut but is it far enough
ahead that you can push the shaft back to remove the shaft coupling half?
Rotational play between shaft coupling is not as bad as excess
clearance between the hub shaft. I would attempt a temporary repair
and
Joel wouldn’t let us have wine on the boat last year… :^)
That Tripp that went inshore had been doing a half knot better than the leaders
at times; but it looks like everyone else if heading offshore and picking up
some wind now.
PredictWind might give you what you’re looking for.

Wind right now looks like NNE at 15+, according to PredictWind.

It's a little too early in the race to start drinking, isn't it? :)

Could the worn keyway be related to the need for the transmission rebuild? I
have gone through two transmission rebuilds in the 30 years I've owned my boat.
I've never encountered a loose keyway though.
If there is any chance of losing your shaft, I would fix it ASAP and I wouldn't
rely on a
At this time of year all yards in Seattle will be busy, so I would call all
three, starting in this order: CSR, Canal, Seaview. I had mine hauled at
Canal just today, for about a week of DIY work plus a bit of deck
fiberglass repair by Pacific Fiberglass. CSR when I called them 3 weeks ago

It looks from the tracking that two more boats are heading back to the Bay,
pulling out of the race. And they’re both in Joel’s class. He’s third in
class now.
And the Tripp that went inshore is doing pretty well; they’re closest to the
rhumb line of the lead group right now.

You can always put a retention ring
(http://www.pyiinc.com/index.php?section=src ) on the inside (between the
coupling and the packing gland). Much better than the zinc.
