Hi Rollerskate,

The St Tropez has a rather high revving propshaft, if Mark has any bronze bushings that'll fit, I'd go for those in stead of nylon.
Keep the stuffing tube filled with light grease and you should be good to go.

If you run the stock metal prop, take the time to balance it, as an unbalanced prop will reek havoc with your bearings, nylon or bronze...

Regards, Jan.
