My boat is a 1996 Ski Centurion Sport Bowrider. It has a 350 magnum in it (Tournament ski). Borg Warner velvet drive 1:1 transmission.

I'm not sure exactly what it's called. It's the piece that hangs down and holds the propeller shaft in place under the boat. Mine has two set screws in it and I'm not quite sure if they need to be adjusted or not. How much play, if any, should the shaft have inside the guide? Do these set screws control the play?

I tried searching and read the "adults only" page. Hopefully this hasn't been asked a million times. :redface:

I can include a picture if needed.

Thanks,
Sean
