[Public-List] stuffing box drips

[Mark Bisset]

Hi Dan,

I was a little casual about my stuffing box drips until last summer  
when it almost led to disaster. We arrived at the boat for a sail and  
the water was almost up to the bunks. My little drip had changed  
quickly into a major leak. Don't mess around with it. Follow Mike's  
guidelines. Also check the packing nut for the rudder shaft.
