    Sounds like you spun your hub. Just take it to a prop shop and they’ll put in a new hub for you.

    No new prop needed!

    I second that, had a couple turn loose for me, kind of a scairy thing the first time it happens. If memory serves me right, it’s only about $40 to replace a hub. jerr

    Thanks guys!!! That’s what I thought and was hopeing for, just didn’t really know if it could be repaired. I’ll have to track down a prop shop in the morning.

    You’re right jerr. The first time is kinda’ scary. Actually the first and only other time for me was when I was a kid and “borrowed”, my dad’s boat while he was out of town. I don’t remember which was scarier, the high revving motor or trying to replace that prop before he got home!!!

    Had to go change my pants the first time-WOT @ 65mph, I can still hear it hitting the rev limiter– – jerr
