I notice that when I am in forward, but at idle speed there is a slight wobble in the coupling, where the packing nut is on the drive shaft. I have a '69 Ski Nautique. I don't notice any vibration when cruising however. I am assuming this wobble is due to the alignment being slightly off. With this being the first season of having the boat, I'm not sure if this wobble falls into the "normal" range. Should there be no noticable wobble at idle speed?

When it's spinning, it should look round.
