I access mine through a cut out made in the port locker. It turned out that what I thought was a leak in the stuffing box was actually a leak between the rudder tube and the hull. I glassed the junction of the tube and hull and after 2 years have not seen any leaks.Marcelo#441

John,
The rudder post stuffing box is packed the same way as the prop shaft
stuffing box, though it's a different size.

Getting to it can be tricky, but I go in from the port locker.
