Hi, I'm hoping someone can help with some advice.
My SD50 sail drive on my Hunter / Legend 38 in the UK needs to have the oil seal replaced but I'm really struggling to get the shaft assembly removed so I can get at the oil seal. The local Yanmar dealer doesn't even want to do the job ("we may break it").
It appears to simply be "stuck" and there is nothing to attach to so that a tool can be used. It certainly doesn't come out by hand,
Has anyone got any advice please? Tools used, tips or tricks? Help!
