    In the past I found that leaving the shaft in the freezer overnight and placing the new bearings in a warm oven for twenty minutes allowed the new bearings to tap on to the shaft easily.

    RYA calls to end the compulsory carriage of flares on leisure craft.

    Might one assume that you have a financial interest in the continuing use of pyrotechnic flares? They seem to be very close to your heart.

    More reflections on our prop issue.

    An outside possibility may be that your propeller has, at some time in the past, been re-profiled.

    More reflections on our prop issue.

    the suggested starting point for your engine is 13' x 8'. This suggests to me that 9.5' is a tad course in pitch.
