Here goes, I hope this "takes". Have any of you worked on the rudder stuffing box(es) on your boats? I just checked mine (never did before - duh) and found some small amount of "weeping" up the rudder shaft into the bilge. I expect to see a few drops around the prop shaft stuffing box, but don't think the rudder shaft should have any leakage. I can tighten down to see if it stops and repack after the boat's out of the water this fall.
Any advice?
Thanks
