Looks like I will be doing this over next week. just slipped my 1971 Luders 33 today as found water dripping from the stern shaft after a sail. Have had this leak for a while and not been able to pin point it till today. Cheers from Adelaide Australia
Thanks for sharing. Very profound GRP craftsmanship. Don’t use felt-pens or overhead markers for marking on GRP. The ink will diffuse through the gelcoat and will show later as a shadow on the surface. Use only pencil (…or grind it away as you did with most of the markings).
I have an allegro 27. The stern tube seems to be made out of two tubes placed one in front of the another. The outer tube is where the cutlass bearing is inserted to. And the other is where the sealing shaft is attached to. I noticed a leakage in between these two tubes. Im thinking if there is another way to fill epoxy in the leaking point other than to replace like you did. If someone fixed thet in an allegro 27 using other ways instead of replacing the tube like he did , please let me know how it was. Thank you for this video!

Good luck. If it's a different type of construction you can try boring it out from the stern - but this requires some specialist kit.
