1981 CAL 35

[Tom W]

Hi - I own a 1981 CAL 35 Mark III and I'm wondering if any of you Cal owners know what the diameter of the propeller tube is. I need to replace my packing box and would like to order it before I head back to Mexico. Unfortunately (for me) I forgot to measure the hose size I will need to replace the Buck Algonquin packing box. My propeller shaft diameter is 1 1/4". So, from the catalogues it apprears I will need a 2" or 2 1/4" packing box and hose.... but I'm not sure which one to get.
Any help? Thanks! Tom

I think it is 2 1/4 but I am heading up to work on the boat this week and could tell you more then.
