[Public-list] Shaft Coupling

[J Bergquist]

John-

I had exactly the same situation on my boat. I wound up buying a new
shaft & coupling, but I was already buying a new engine anyway, so
this job was a 'while you're at it'. I did remove the previous engine
several times and always just re-used the rusted coupling.

Good luck.
