A leaking PSS dripless shaft seal on a sailboat can lead to flooding if the vent hose or associated through-hull valve fails. In this case, a two-year-old ball valve on the shaft seal’s water vent line broke, allowing water to enter the bilge.20:36 The permanent solution involved a boatyard glassing over the through-hull, plugging the shaft seal vent, and compressing the bellows to ensure a proper seal.19:12 The owner also replaced a worn Raymarine EV-100 wheel pilot belt after 10,000 miles of use, noting that harsh maneuvers with the clutch engaged likely accelerated the wear.5:17 Additionally, the project list included installing a galvanic isolator to protect sacrificial anodes from accelerated corrosion caused by shore power connections, replacing a heat exchanger anode, and modifying a sail cover to better accommodate lazy jacks while preventing rainwater ingress.10:32
