Does anyone know what size packing does a 1977 Correct Craft Southwind 20 take for the propeller shaft and rudder? I need to replace it. Thanks

Most likely it's is 1/4 but I suggest getting 3/16 a well. Just measure to be safe. BTW, do NOT use the old flax. Go with the Gortex.

Yes, You will need 1/4" for the rudder and 3/16" for the prop shaft.
