I am considering using the PSS shaft seal on my boat. I have a couple question that I am sure I can get answers to on here. The first is has anyone installed it themselves and what kind of a job was it..it looks pretty staight forward. What kind of problems did you have if any. My second is does it work as stated...I am tired of water in my bildge. Part of the reason I am looking at doing this is that I need to replace the rubber on my stuffing box so I thought this would be the time to switch. I have also thought about using the dripless packing but the price of that added to the price of the new rubber piece is almost 3/4 the price of the PSS.I know that there are those here that do not like the PSS or similar systems and I have heard all those concerns but I have feel it is a good and dependable system. I am not debating the merits of it..just the installation.
