A year ago I had to replace my driveshaft on my 15" mid/sportmaster due to corrosion eating away at the sealing surface to the top Gearcase seal. I just put my boat in for it's "Annual" and the new driveshaft is looking worse than the 5 year old one that it replaced. We are going to paint the shaft [instead of just greasing it] to try and get another year out of it. It seems a shame that Merc does not understand corrosion after all of these years in the Marine business.
The shafts and gearsets are too expensive to change every year....
