I amm experiencing problems with 'slipping' in high loads (not heavy loads) forward and reverse gear. The boat is in the water and it is hard to have a look internally. Has anyone experienced this before. I am betting on problems with the oil in the saildrive and the slip coupling slipping too soon. ANY IDEAS ?

I need a replacement propellor for a volvo penta 2001 connected to a 120s saildrive. My 2004 parts catalogue lists the item as part no 839514 (two blade prop 14 x 8) + anode. However, originally the saildrive was fitted with the more expensive folding prop' (3858507). Can you use the cheaper fixed blade replacement, is it directly compatible? What about a three blade prop?
Thanks Ken

I have an S2 1981 sailboat with a volvo/penta saildrive. There is a "rubberized" "membrane" on the hull where the lower unit comes through the hull which has deteriorated badly and needs replacement. Does anyone know what it's called, and where I can get a replacement?

help! has anyone experiences loosing a propeller???? We thought we had a transmission problem when we lost one of our engines transmissions in our sailing catamaran. When we dove on it ..... the propeller was gone!! Why did this happen? How can we be sure it won't happen again when we get a new one??
The weather was not severe, we didn't hit anything, I don't get it!!!
Thanks for your advice in advance

I have experience with a lost MaxProp three blades folding propeller on a Volvo 120S saildrive, but my analysis concluded that the cause was a missing pin in the propeller back bolt.

My 120S saildrive has a dent of abt 5 mm in the front edge,just below the hull; the dent is possibly due to attrition with some hard rope or fishing net. Does somebody have drawings to understand what is behind it, i.e. whether there is any risk of a major breakdown if the remaining thikness is small?
Many thanks for help. Please email maurotripiciano@tin.it
