[C320-list] Dripless shaft???

[Rod Boer]

Scott,

I installed a dripless shaft on my 2000 C320.  I used it for a couple of years but I worked for a company that demanded 99.99% reliability and if things go wrong there has to be a mechanism to handle it. I starting thinking what would I do if the bellows developed a significant crack while I was out in the ocean. I couldn't find a good answer so I went back to the conventional solution with a stuffing box.

Has anybody installed a drip-less shaft on their C320?  Just asking but the admiral is asking about getting rid of the water in the bilge and I have to ask.
Mainly the price and any experiences from those who have done it? Thanks, Scott Westwood scottwestwood at bellsouth.net H (919)-362-8538    C (919)-618-7185
