Carolyn and I have successfully hauled out Moondance and Carolyn gave her a bottom job while I pulled the shaft and replaced the stuffing box hose. We got her in the water and went for a ride and Steve and his wife Pam came along but unfortunantly the the stuffing box was still getting hot. This was a problem before. Well to make things short Steve, Charl and I spent time trying to figure out why it would run hot and between Steve and Charl the solution was found. It was a combination of the shaft not being centered in the shaft tube and rubbing on the side and being slightly out of alignment. After it was all done everything was running cool and straight. Just one more step closer to cutting the dock lines. With luck we will be sailing off in the beginning of Novenber.
