I'd be curious on the vote of the list participants on what material to use for the propeller shaft on an A30.  My current shaft is 1" either brass or bronze, but it appears I can get stainless for about the same cost.  Would I use 304 or 316, brass on bronze?  I am concerned about the electrolysis potential of having brass next to stainless below the water line.  My boat is currently in fresh water, but that may not always be the case.  Any suggestions?
