Tried OEM, Vetus.
Would not supply seal on its own, only as part of an entire kit including new impeller for over £100!
Contacted Sue at George Lodge seals, Kingston on Hull.
Most helpful!
Ordered what I hope is the equivalent. Only a couple of quid, free postage.
Will check fit and update.
Thanks, Tony

Ps. Grommet is marked up as "Forsheda" in moulding

Hi all.
On removing the impeller from my bow thruster for cleaning I found that the grommet/seal around the plastic shaft was broken/perished. Has anyone got a source for a replacement for this, please.
Attached sketch may help with description.
Thanks Tony
