    Propshaft replacement?
    Iโ€™m refurbishing a 34โ€
    Vosper Fireboat
    , and as Iโ€™m stripping it, have found the propshaft outlet brass โ€œbushโ€ to be slightly worn. Itโ€™s a 9โ€ brass tube, with a 3/16โ€ (4.6mm) x 10โ€ inner shaft. The outlet bush is worn to 5mm, and the input to 4.8mm. Iโ€™m looking for some advice please. Should I just grease it up, and carry on; ream each bush out to 5 mm, and replace the inner shaft; replace with a completely new 5mm propshaft? If replace the entire shaft, how do you remove one without damaging a wooden hull? Thanks in anticipation! Bill
