https://www.pyiinc.com/_**PYI Inc.* has been helping boaters get connected with innovative marine products since 1981. They produce the PSS dripless shaft seal in their on-site machine shop, and operate the only world-wide facility for the refurbishment of the MAX-Prop feathering propeller (They are the distributor for New Max-Props to North and South America and Asia).
