[C38] rudder post leak

[Max soto]

What kind of packing are you using? I used the square shape Teflon packing, but I have found that it just gets compressed downwards, and that's it.. I want to give it a try. With the old stile round shaped packing.. This one might get squeezed against the post and seal the whole thing...
