Default Thuder Cat 31 Problem

Hello, gentlemen!

I have a Thuder Cat 31. It runs pretty good, but the problem is that it gets some water (about 2/1 cup - 1 cup) insinde through the propeller shaft tube. I checked the water cooling system. There is no water leaking.

When I kept the boat to sit on water for about 30 minutes, I could see that water was coming through the propeller shaft tube.

Even though I richly lubricate the shaft after each several runs, still water comes in the boat. Thus, after every run, I have to drain the water quite much.

I have several different boats, but they have never had this problem. The insides of my other boats are usually kept dry after running.

To sove this problem, what should I do? Please, help me. Your advises will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
