[Alberg30] Packing nut/seal for prop shaft

[Hansen, Richard D LTC Student]

Sunspur has been out of water for 6 months.
Packing seal (proper term?) to prop shaft was OK/fine when it left water.
Will that seal deteriorate out of water such that I should change it
absolutely?  Or do the seals perform after hiatus from water?

Another prop shaft question.  I moved a rotten "donut" from between the prop
and hull.  2 semi-circle donuts screwed together at edges.  What is that and
must I replace and if so West Marine #?

Thanks again for your patience and knowledge.  Did not find these topics
readily in manual or website.
