    No more than any other split gearcase motor if the era. We don’t know what he had apart do we? If he had the skeg off, he may not have installed a new o-ring and spaghetti (properly). Or the shaft may be worn. It’s been many, many moons since I’ve had one of those apart, but I sort of remember you don’t have to take it apart to replace the prop shaft seal (??).
