Thanks Evan!

There is actually a bit of play in the whole system. The engine is mounted on rubber, cushioned mounts, and the end of the shaft can be pulled around pretty significantly when it’s disconnected from the coupler. Combine that with the fact that the whole thing torques to probably a different position under load, and it’s just not such an exact science. Also, the system tends to be self-centering as it spins. The actual misalignment was about 16 thousandths of an inch (still more than you’d want) and that’s now all fixed! Glad not to find any weirdness underneath the boat!

⅜” strikes me as more than a minor bit of wobble in your shaft. Fixing that sounds like it should remedy the problem. Fingers crossed here. …

Good luck & have a good voyage South.

I know!! 🙂
Yeah, on the photo of the shaft seal, at the top middle of that photo you’ll see a black water line — that where water comes in (plumbed from the main raw water intake).

Having a shaft seal overheat in those conditions! Looking at the cutlass bearing photo, it is not clear how water could flow into the shaftseal bellows readily. Is there a separate water passge? On my sailboat the shaft tube is open to cooling water, as the cutlass bearing is strut mounted further aft.
