    Checking shaft alignment

    I recently acquired a 1990 Catalina 34 at auction and am in the process of getting her ready for launch. I managed to get the engine running (M25XP), but there was a lot of vibration. I then discovered that one of the motor mount nuts (port aft) had worked itself loose. Tightening this nut...

    3YM prop shaft coupling bolts and propeller nut torque settings?

    1977 O'Day Broken Strut

    Hey guys my Strut broke on my prop shaft while I was motoring about the Marina. I think the previous owner did a mickey mouse fix since he had the same problem. I'm looking at solutions to fix this that won't cost me an arm and a leg. Anyone have any cheap solutions to fixing a problem like this?
