🔌 Function

Transmits drive from the gear set to the propeller and carries the thrust the propeller generates back into the drive's bearings.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Vibration through the drive that rises with shaft speed
• Oil weeping at the shaft seal, or water found in the drive oil
• Seal track on the shaft scored or grooved
• Splines at the propeller end worn, fretted or twisted
• Bearing rumble felt through the drive housing

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew the shaft seals and check the bearing surfaces whenever the shaft is out
• Inspect the propeller hub and its splines for matching wear, since a worn hub will damage a new shaft
• Fishing line wrapped behind the propeller is a common cause of seal and shaft damage, so check for it
