The engine worked great, although Bill found the set screw was missing

I've been burned out working on this boat for some time, but I'm feeling

Welcome back, not sure where you've been, but I read a suggestion a while
back about zincs that might not be bad idea. The author suggested
installing
a zinc on the shaft between the coupling and the packing gland, if
something
happens to the coupling it could keep the shaft from falling out of the
boat.


Sure couldn't hurt!
