opti prop shaft end float..how much?

Hi again, another opti question which I hope someone may know the answer to.

What is the amount of end float on the propshaft of a opti 150. i.e when I pull the prop towards me how much horizontal travel should there be?

The prop by the way is fully tight.

regards richard

So how much should there be?

I've got a 2001 150hp Opti with a few hundred hours and it would be good to check.
