Hi Sonnich -Glad you've got your prop shaft sorted out now. I bet it was a bit fiddly replacing it. (but that's part of the fun of modelling) Glad you're able to keep the water out with just your seal - I think it probably depends on how good the machining is when the WTC is cut at the Robbe factory - I reckon you have been very lucky 'cos quite a few people seem to have the seal problem (or maybe you have a better rubber seal than some)- anyway a smear of vaseline soon puts it right - so if you have to replace your seal at anytime and it doesn't fit as well there's your answer. Anyway, glad you're on the water again Sonnich, or under it.

Ian


PS. Come to think of it - it's probably your building skills in keeping all the construction dead straight and level that's kept the water out....[sm=drowning.gif] Cheers...Ian
