The crew of Jibsea hauled their vessel out of the water in Newfoundland to investigate a persistent vibration in the propulsion system.4:28 After installing a flexible coupling failed to resolve the issue, they removed the propeller and shaft, discovering significant wear on both the cutlass bearing and the prop shaft itself.14:00 Because the shaft could not be removed through the rudder due to the skeg, the crew had to shift the engine forward to gain clearance.11:50 A local resident provided a spare shaft of the correct diameter, which the crew took to a machine shop to be cut and machined to size.15:11 While waiting for parts, the crew explored the local waters of Chimney Cove and participated in recreational cod fishing with local patrons.17:55 The repair process highlights the necessity of checking shaft alignment and cutlass bearing wear when troubleshooting drivetrain vibrations.
