Is the stuffing box on these normally sealed with packing or is there a compression nut type of thing in them? I opened it up and don't see any packing but she is a new to me boat that I have never seen in the water. Trying to reduce the chances of a leak when we do finally get her launched.
Attached are a couple of pictures of the stuffing box in various states of disassembly.
