My C&C 32 has a 1" prop shaft.  Where it enters the stern hull before the packing gland, there is a hose gland approximately 6" to 10" long with several large adjustable clamps around it that covers the prop shaft. How often should that hose gland be replaced?  Is it # of engine hours, # of years, etc.  Replacing it after it ruptures could be impossible if the boat sinks which i understand to be the case.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
