I need some drawings/photos [no more details for potential legal reasons!] of the shaft of a saildrive showing the splines [I think I've read they have 17?] and similar photos/drawings of the hole in the propeller boss that fits onto the shaft, also showing the splines.

I've googled with no success - any one know of any?

Hi Nicholas. Is it a Volvo?

If so, I have been meaning to take my prop off to replace the anode for some time now.

If it is urgent I will do it tomorrow for you and take pics.

Not sure what you mean by '' of the hole in the propeller boss that fits onto the shaft, also showing the splines.''

Yes, there is a hole in the boss but the boss spins onto the shaft. The hole is there to tighten it. What splines?
 
Not a Volvo - Betamarine 20HP.

Not all of them have splines on the shaft, but I know this one does! Thanks for the offer, but if it's a plain shaft, it's not what I'm looking for.

Thank God for that /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

It's 3.7 degrees here with a F4/5 NE blowing (ChiMet).

Of course I would have gone down to the boat for you but sitting here watching Scrubs on TV is preferable. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Hope you get the problem sorted.
 
These any good ?

The picture of the shaft also has a ropecutter on it in case you are wondering...
