both companies will ship worldwide,R and D are manufacturers who will supply if it is a stock item

lancing marine are marine marinization/fabrication experts who might be able to help if it is a non stock item.

good luck

nearly 8am here in uk,they will be open for calls in another another hour

check the R and D website,it might be a stock item,i know they definitly have yanmar (bolt pitch) shaft couplers and conventional yanmar "doughnut"flexible couplings as i have bought these items from them before

Farymann diesel part # is where I found it , only 3 that are known to be still in stock, for anyone who is still using it, if you have the ability to move your shaft (I did) and a new coupling is on the way from r&d marine, much cheaper than the $800.00 rough expensive with shipping cost to Alaska, I did a temporary fix with (4) inch stainless bolts, going the entire way through, and a single 5 inch to get it started by compressing it with nylon washers. No noticeable vibration when running but have spares in case , and waiting for the new part from r&d to get in.
