Stern tube replacement

Post by Sebby »

Hi there,

Has anybody ever had to replace a stern tube on a Classic 36? I replaced the cutless bearing on my boat, but when the bearing holder was removed it sheared off the stainless steel tube. Now the bearing holder is only attached by 2 studs. Has anybody ever had this happen?

I would appreciate your advice.

Hi, we got it fixed by machining a stainless steel threaded spigot. Seems to be fine now
