Stern tube and packing gland

Here is a picture of the cleaned up stern tube and packing glad (less hose) .  Visited the prop shop this morning and will have a new prop shaft, flange, packing gland hose, and cutlass bearing along with a newly tuned prop by this weekend.

Decided to go ahead and replace the shaft and flange due to some minor scoring and since everything is out makes sense to me to go ahead and replace.

Hope to remove the transmission this weekend so that I can replace the rear seal which has been leaking for years!
