Drive Shaft Sheared - 30th May 2024

 Black Gang Marine rang us to say they'd stripped the drive to find the main drive shaft had sheared in half due to the drive having struck the dock at Haslar whilst docking. The problem is there not sure they can extract the broken shaft from the lower part of the drive. However they did manage to do this.

Sheared Drive Shaft with shear collar intact
This isn't good nor cheap to repair
Broken bits in the drive
Cone clutch damaged
Worm gear damaged

It seems to be going from bad to worse
