Dripless - Cutlass

I have a 1983 Hunter 34 , does anyone know the measurements of the Cutlass Brg.
also the dripless for this boat ?
I know it has a 1inch shaft .
Thanks , Jim

Jim,

The cutlass is 4"x1 1/4". The dripless will take me a little longer. I have to find the receipt.

Exactly right on the CutLess, Allen.. It is the one code named "BACK" here :

I don't have a dripless seal..

If you have a stuffing box, and a one inch shaft, it's mostly likely 3/16" flax. Maybe 1/4", buy both return what doesn't work.

Jim,

I found my receipt for my PSS dripless seal. Is that what you are referring to? Otherwise, Stu is correct...its 3/16 packing. Mind you, I purchased my PSS in 1999 from West Marine and upon checking, the part numbers are slightly different. My part number was 01-100-112. The seal has a slightly different design now with a vent that mine does not have. I have to burp it whenever we haul the boat. The new ones look self burping. The new part number I see on WM is 02-100-112. This leads me to believe that I had a 1 1/2" stern tube that the bellows fits on. However, you should probably verify your own dimensions before ordering. We have been quite happy with the dripless seal. Our bilge is dry and the boat remains fresh smelling.

Hi Claude,

Thanks for the link to the PYacht site. I had not used them. The last two bearings I have used seemed to wear very quickly. I beleive they are Blackfish...origin unknown. Have you had luck with PYacht's offering?

We offer the same BACK cutlass here for about 24% less than Pyacht:

Yes, the PYI shaft seal size is 1 x 1.5 inch

We will match or beat Pyacht's price on this, we are well below them on the cutlass bearing.

Ouch, Sorry for not checking first, Dave.. You guys have a great price ! and a choice of metal or composite..
I should have stated that I was using them as an example and not recommending the purchase from them.. You guys are doing a fine job of expanding the available products .. Thanks
