BC coast longliner "Jackfish"

How does the motor / driveshaft/ propeller go through the hull. I'm interested in doing a boat, but not sure how to go about the hull pass though part...

Thanks

You can buy a shaft tube from a hobby shop or online. You can get them in various lengths too. It's just a tube with a plastic bushing at each end that the prop shaft passes through. Fill it with grease and your good to go!

a brass tube filled with grease works great

The weather was really nice today so this evening I decided to play with what started all this mess for me
