Default drip type packing gland

You can still do it. You just have to want to. Last weekend I was up for
36 hours straight 'cos I was realling enjoying a nice dark night with a
gentle breeze.

You really should be there when she's launched. She will not like you
not being there and may decide to teach you a lesson.

How tight do you make the packing? Till the shaft won't turn by hand?

I *will* loosen it up and adjust before I motor anywhere.

'play' with the boat all week.
Damn cell phone!
