I get the dates stamped in but what do marks like ” 46R_78″ mean. Never figured that out. Any prop guys out there?

I have a basement machine shop, and somewhere along the way I got a BUNCH of bronze propshafting from various smaller boats (based upon the diameter of the shafts – mostly in the 7/8″ and 1″ size range). Nice stuff to work with if you have the right tooling (Most of the stuff came from a guy who had worked at a boatyard in Port Washington, from old boats that had been broken up)

Always wanted to see that. Watching the video and today’s warm tempertures gets me thinking about refloating my sailboat. Time to head down to the boatyard and find a bottle or two of beer left on board and toast in another spring this afternoon. Let the season begin!
