Your cutlass bearing may be on its way out. As the bearing wears, the
clearances open up and allow the shaft to wobble.
You can dive under the boat and check for play in the blades of the prop
and play in the cutlass bearing.
I have also had zincs come loose and "ride" the shaft.

Hey all -
My friends and I are currently in Tofino, BC on day 6 of a much needed
vacation. So far our Yanmar GM30F and 3-bladed max-prop have been
performing brilliantly, sipping diesel and pushing the boat through the
less-windy sections of Strait of Juan De Fuca and up and over some large
ocean
