Water Leaking from the Drive Shaft Packing - 08 XLV
Finally got the Moomba on the water this weekend for the first time and while doing a visual check on the V-Drive compartment, I noticed a water leak right where the drive shaft meets the packing hub (exiting the boat). I felt the water and it was hot so I know it was not river water but rather cooling water from the engine. Is it normal to have a small leak the first time out (till the packing expands) or do I need to replace the packing? Thx!!
