Propshaft Coupling

[Guest]

I have on my boat a very reliable Yanmar SE12 engine which is connected to the propshaft with a coupling consisting of a pair of flanges a fairly rigid rubber section about 15mm thick bonded between them. After 20 years use the rubber has started to delaminate from the metal and I need to replace it.If anyone knows where I may obtain a replacement I would be very gratefull.

Try R&D Marine (http://www.randdmarine.co.uk) 01462 892391

I got a new half coupling (prop-shaft end) and flexible coupling from them for my Yanmar 3GM30. Good price and good service.

Cheers,

Jerry

Many thanks for the help with my query.
