Still no further on – can’t get the gearbox from the hyds off yet as there’s a pesky sur clip stopping me. Planning to take the prop off and see if I can pull the whole propshaft forward but it’s not looking promising. Next step is to cut through the gearbox – but that risks a shortened stern tube where I’ll need to mount a sterngland for the new Aquadrive set up.
Separately, does anyone have a spare rigging tripod that I could acquire!? Keen to cut down on the mad amount i am spending on lifting and lowering into the water each year alongside a mast set up… I’ll clearly need to get a new trailer at some point if i am dipping mine in, but in 50 years time am sure the business case will stack up!

Am after one of these!
