Guys,

My pal Lenny has an '84 newport 30.

We are hauling our boats for a bottom job in a few weeks.
He will change to a PSS shaft seal.

He did take measurements with calipers but is not 100% sure of the log OD. The original stuffing box hose runs all the way back & makes acurate measure tough. He did say he felt there was a reduction down in size. He mic'd the hose @ 2 1/4" OD, and thinks the log OD is 2".

I took a reading some weeks back and read the log OD as 1-7/8".
I think the reduction in size may be the mudding seal where the log exits the interior of the hull.

Can someone verify our correct dimensions.

Thanks guys,

CR
