1.5 PROPULSION SYSTEM
The power generated by the engine is transmitted to the
propellers via the transmission, shaft coupling and propeller
shaft assembly. The propeller shaft is supported and aligned
with the engine by a through-hull shaft log and an outside strut.
Your propulsion system is manufactured from high quality
materials. Your system’s performance and life span very much
depends on the care you give it. To maintain its reliability and
ensure the long life for all the components, your system
demands your careful attention, treatment and a consistent
program of preventive maintenance.
