Replacing the Bowl Seal on a Berkeley 12JC Jet Drive

This one is kind of a how-to video, although I definitely did a few things wrong along the way. I didn't find a really comprehensive guide for how to do this anywhere else, so hopefully this helps someone! If you're used to my DIY build videos, this is not going to be very interesting, as it's just 30 minutes of disassembly and reassembly of a single worn part.

In the video I'm removing the transom housing and bowl from my 12JC Berkeley Jet Drive. I'm replacing the small seal that keeps the bowl oil in place and ensures the pump shaft is lubricated. On my boat it appears someone installed the seal backwards or used the wrong one, so there was no oil in the reservoir and there's a lot of wear and damage to my pump shaft.

I don't have a replacement shaft and the specialty tools needed to re-seat the bushings are on back order, so I ignored the damage and just re-assembled everything. Next year I hope to do a more thorough job.
