 In the first instance suggest you try talking with Mobile Marine Models in Lincoln.  They manufacture their own on site.

Thank you Treble. I contacted Mobile Marine Models but as they said they produce their own bearings for their own prop shafts so do not supply other makes.

 Skimmer , if you get stuck then let me know and I'll make them for you to your dimensions in either brass or phosphor bronze . You will obviously need to pay for material and postage costs.
