Bronze Prop Shaft Problems

<< < (2/2)

Sundownersforme:
Hello,

I have a Pearson 323 and my shaft strut was worn out.  After lots of research and some luck I found a guy who claims to have bought the original molds.  He is casting me a new replacement.  I wanted to share this information with any and all Pearson owners as it was very hard to find and not linked to common search engines.

here you go:

D&R Marine Inc.
PO Box 921
14 Water Street
Assonet, MA 02702

You should have good experience with Rudy. He has sold me quite a few things in the last 25 years.

grzano:
Hi everyone,

I really appreciate the information. In order to change the cutlass bearing in my boat I need to pull the shaft. It may pay to change the strut rather than pulling the shaft every few years, as that is a real PIA and the shaft requires realignment afterward.

I'll check with D&R Marine to see what they offer. I plan to keep this boat for the next 10 years or so.

Thank you again,

Greg
