We appear to have developed a couple of leaks. One is the shaft seal. Our boat is a 1991 SO 42.1. Does anyone know what kind/make/model of seal was installed at the factory? Is it serviceable? The second I think is coming in at the top of the rudder post. Same questions as above. Any info appreciated. Check out our blog. travels-of-sv-far-niente.blogspot.com/

I think you need to service/adjust the stuffing boxes at both locations; that should take care of your leaks. DonĀ“t overtighten them, especially the shaft one since it will cause overheating and worsen your problems. Good luck.
