Boaters Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 Fixed at last !!!!!!!!!! Thanks for all the help,The slack got worse so got someone from a one of the yards yard to take a look and was told that it was a damaged key way and the boat needed lifting,shaft out machined etc etc said we could use it carefully as we were going to Sutton for the weekend.Set off and as we got to Ludham Bridge remembered the Yard was now run by Jason Hatch who runs SOS 24/7 .Popped into the shed and Jason said he would have a look, got some tools removed flange and tightened the nut on the inboard end replaced bolts an hey presto job done .Into reverse is now smooth and "clunk free " must have had play since we bought the boat.So it was a taper on the end plus a nut on the end and then bolted back together to the gear box .All I can say is a much better result than I expected and thanks to Jason who proved that there is good honest service out there.
