Hi folks,
over the past few weeks my propellor has developed a 'clunckiness' which it didn't have at the start of the season. I'm assuming this is caused by vibration and my questions are
-what might be the cause of the vibration? I haven't been aware of hitting anything which might have damaged the prop.
-am I likely to do more harm by leaving this until the winter haul out to resolve?
The boat is a Victoria 34 with a three bladed prop turned by a Yanmar 3GM30F. The cutlass bearing was replaced in 2009.
Thoughts welcome!
