[Alberg30] prop shaft thread

[Fraser, Kent W.]

My prop shaft threads, aft of the prop, and the nut threads are corroded,
probably from galvanic action.  It's in fresh water now on Lake Champlain.
The remaining shaft inside the threads is down to 1/2" diameter.  Is there a
reason that I should not re-thread, with that limited of a width?  The
shipyard is advising that I replace the shaft, and I'd like to check into
re-threading 1st.
