In Response To: Shaft, Rudder, Wheel Q (Ernest)

I've seen more than one repower/reshaft where the shaft is inset to center line just enough to clear the rudder when removing the shaft, but you still need enough clearance between the rudder to get the prop off. I can't see any reason the shaft and strut can't be set far enough away to remove the prop, rudder responce won't be affected by an additional 4", it will effect shaft angle, but unless your going over 315 h.p. I can't see it as a major hurdle. If your doing it all over, do it the way you want, won't cost much more.
