     Bonding your shaft to your transmission will NOT
    solve the problem.
     My guess is that you have a stainless steel shaft
    and a bronze propeller. Either the zinc is too
    small for the job or you have a 'stray current'
    problem.

     Bonding PROMOTES galvanic corrosion, it does NOT
    prevent it!
