Cut the prop shaft in the boat. Take out a 2" long section. Take off
prop. When re-installing, use a sliding coupler to join the two
pieces. This assumes you even have enough room to do this cutting.


Woah! This is up there with some of the worst advice I've encountered on
this newsgroup.

There isn't any room to do it anyway. The shaft nearly hits the rudder
in the rear and there is only a couple of inches between the engine
coupling and the packing gland.

Unless you wanted an Alberg 33 with the open back cockpit for racing
:-)
