Moving to south Carolina, and really want to take my boat with me... im running a 5.7 mercruiser with a Bravo 2 in a 94 wellcraft... plan on dry rack storing. I also plan on changing my anodes to zinc , and installing a flush system. Can I expect motor and outdrive to hold up ok?

Yes just keep up with maintenance such as pulling the drive at the end of each season to check the driveshaft bellows for water and grease the gimble bearing and u joints if they are grease-able. Keep in mind in salt water exhaust systems do not last as long as they do in fresh, we usually check and replace them at 5-7 season intervals.
If you are rack storing you should not have problems.
