Does anyone know the halyard size on the 303? Looks like it measures 7/16. Could that be right?

Steering System, Hull Structure / Re: Rudder to skeg play
« on: January 30, 2022, 07:42:26 AM »
I have not noticed any problems with the handling of the boat, in fact, the steering is so smooth and effortless, it's like power steering. The play I'm talking about is when I pull the rudder at the bottom backwards toward the stern.

Steering System, Hull Structure / Rudder to skeg play

Just hauled the boat, a Pearson 303, and checking the rudder for play at the pintles, gudgeons . About 3/8 inch of play. Is this a lot? Everything else looks good.

P303 / rudder packing
« on: January 05, 2022, 09:10:45 AM »
Anyone with a 303 ever repack their rudder shaft packing. I don't have any leaks but I thought I would do it while the boat is out of the water. Looks like it's been a while since anyone touched it.

P303 / 303 cutless bearing replace

Has anyone with a 303 or similar design shaft log replaced the cutless bearing. Any problems to look for, does the shaft have to be pulled?

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking the previous owner pushed the bellows too far down the shaft tube and  when I try to compress the collar, the carbon and bellows hits the end of the shaft tube.

My question is how long is the shaft tube? I think the previous owner installed the PSS seal to far down the tube and that won't let me compress the bellows. A picture of your setup might help.

Could someone send a picture of your shaft tube and shaft seal on a Pearson 303

Does anyone know the length of the shaft tube on the interior of the 303 Pearson?
