I'll try to help

From the left
# 1 is the Shaft Support
# 2 is the Stern Tube or sometimes called the Packing Gland
#3 (above the shaft sketch) is the Packing
#4 is the Shaft Strut
# 5 is the as you know the Rudder

Hope this helps.
 
Greetings,
Mr Portuguese. I agree with Mr.Bear but alternate names could be:
#1 Pillow block
#2 Stuffing box
 
In some instaliations the "shaft support" might also be a thrust bearing.

This is usually done with a CPP . Controllable Pitch Prop.

It is also done on boats with very flexible engine mounts to cut down on engine noise , vibration.

For fish survey boats the engine will be mounted on soft mounts , in a cradle , also with soft mounts. Overkill for a yacht.
