Shaft Drive Maintenance ?
Well, my new to me boat has a shaft drive, and its something i don't have much of a clue about, i hear of cutlass bearings and stuffing boxes and have a rough idea of what they are, do all of these systems need greased ? or are some maintenance free? need to check mine to see what kind i have!

Sooooo much to learn!!!
