The Propeller and Prop shaft are in!

After months of waiting…its all here and together! Here’s a pic of the Campbell Sailor propeller in the aperture! We have about 1/4″-3/8″ clearance to remove the prop from the shaft without removing the rudder or sliding the engine forward on its mounts! This required a custom hub (4″ rather than the standard 5-1/4″ for a 1-3/4″ prop shaft) and the machine shop shortened the threaded part of the tapered shaft end (as it goes into the nut) so that we have “just” enough room for a pin but not lots of extra threads).
