Hello all,

I'm a new memeber. Got my first ski boat from my father as a gift. He had it sitting for about 6 years so I'm currently fixing it up. Just got it running great last summer and 3rd trip to the river hit a rock real bad. Obliterated the prop. (Needed to be replaced anyways) got to looking Yesterday and it appears that the shaft it shifted/bent. Was just wondering if anyone has any experience removing the shaft from this boat. 351W direct drive. Any help would be much appreciated thanks guys!

Do a search on "replace shaft" and see what you get. You can start here:

You can always call this guy. He really helped me (and I bought my new shaft from him too).
