I'm getting ready to do a haul out and have the bottom cleaned and checked and change out a frozen sea cock, weld a broken dive platform brace, clean and polycoat, etc. Was also thinking about extending the shaft log inside the boat about 6" to facilitate easier access to the packing gland. The generator sits over it, making it very hard to work with. See any problem in doing so? Boat is a 1983 Atlantic 30 with a Volvo tamd40b engine. I have about 24" of shaft between the gland and the engine coupler.
