Gentlemen,
Without trying to add any confusion to this thread, you might peek thru this article that I put together years back.. It's based on 100's of prop installs on both big and small vessels, fast and slow and over 20++ years of doing it..
Just think of it this way--We build prop shafts to the highest spec from scratch, install prop shafts and custom struts in new construction, deal with commercial trap vessels that shift from forward to reverse well over 1000 times per day and we do not have issues......Strictly what we have seen done by others that did not work even though they followed common marine practices, the understanding of proper machining practices applicable to the real marine world in real life applications, and what works 100% without a glitch..
