The Shaft is just 1\8 steel or stainless steel rod, Pro Boat doesn't offer any parts for that boat anymore so you will either have to make your own or find someone to make it for you. You should be able to get the materials from your local hobby shop.
If you have a Good Hobby shop localy you should be able to pick up a [link=http://littlemachineshop.com/products/product_view.php?ProductID=2847]5-40 Die[/link] to cut the threads on the end.
