Seems to be working fine on my boat. I did notice the other day a slight mist coming out of it, so I rigged a 1 gal jug around it to keep the splash off everything. On the next run, it looked like it was misting, but not even enough to drip in the bilge...weird. It's old though at least 15 years...maybe 20.
I didn't know they made rudder seals. I figured packing is fine on rudders because it can be tightened down to not leak....never seen rudder seals in person.
