I am planning to replace the Hurth transmission on Quest and am 
considering doing it myself with the boat in the water.  One of the major 
considerations however is how much room I have to slide the shaft aft with 
the prop and zinc still attached.  I probably need to create several 
inches of clearance at the coupling in order to pull the transmission 
spline out of the engine.  With the rudder at centerline I probably only 
have about an inch of clearance.  Can anybody recall or even look at the 
rudder setup and tell me how much additional clearance I can create aft of 
the prop nut with the rudder hard over.  Any help would be much 
appreciated.
