Re: Re: Thru hull seals

[Jolyonp@aol.com]

Hi everybody,
I'm new to this but I've been experimenting with small, unmanned submersibles
and I'm having trouble with through-hull seals.  I'm wondering a few things:

1)   Can I use a conventional stuffing box but pressurize the lubricant inside
to keep the water out or is that bad idea?

2)   What are some good sources for stuffing boxes or seals for this submarine
use that are on a relatively small scale(my boats are only 3 or 4 feet long?

Thanks everybody,
