I think my 2006 H36 has a 1 inch shaft, but can’t find it in any spec sheets. I want to order a new propellers to be installed in two weeks. Can’t haul the boat for the measurements. Help!

Pretty sure it is 1 inch diameter based on the stuffing box specifications on this site, which also sells replacement shafts. Might confirm with SBO. Also measure the circumference of the shaft with a string adjacent to the stuffing box and divide by 3.14.

As mentioned, you can check it at the stuffing box with a caliper. No need to go swimming.

Measure the length of the taper and the size of the Key. I juste had a one off 3 pale manufactured for mine.

I'm sure you know by now but a Hunter 36 will have a 1" shaft diameter. And FYI- I would be extremely surprised if there weren't a whole bunch of hull cleaners in your neck of the woods capable and willing to do measurements or prop installs or whatever other underwater services you might need.
