Hello-

Why does the shaft of my 2010 Mercury 25 HP turning white?  Why do I see this on motors in this area?  What causes this and how can I fix it?
Keep your line in the water.

What causes hard water? Our outboards on Lake Michigan do not get these marks, what is it about the water in North Dakota, This year I spent more time on Devils Lake than any other.

Then it is hard water stains if you have been on Devils a bit. Safe AR Hull Cleaner will take that off quicker than anything ,available online or Scheels. If you dont want to do that, use a white vineagar/water solution and that along with elbow grease will get it off.
 

Good Luck and Good Fishin'
