Vetus - Bullflex Flexible Couplings

not that i'm buying one.. but I like the design.

Looks nice, but no description if it provide additional electrical decoupling too. A bit expensive.

HOLY COW! $900 bucks for a 1.5" coupling, it better be made out of titanium or something. It does look like a good coupling though.

Yeah and that doesn't include Don't forget to buy Uniset 4/5 Adapter Bolts.

The Globe Composite DriveSaver is another alternative that slips between your existing transmission / shaft coupling.

sailboats have 1.5" shafts??? Or do ships? giggle, drive saver is designed to "break" Who likes that idea?

Non-tapered clamping hub ensures easy installation and dismantling of the shaft assembly

That's the sweet sounding part, to me. ...if it works.

It is expensive, but you wouldn't have to buy a coupling for the shaft. This is both coupling and "flexible-coupling". With the "drive saver" or PYI Flexible Coupling, one still must buy a coupling... FWIW.
