I forgot to mention,
The 3rd (spare) prop starting going on the way in from where we got gas to the check point for weigh in !
Seems there has been an ongoing problem with Etecs burning up prop hubs from the exhaust getting them too hot, but they now have a new redesigned prop that has fixed the problem.
Also,
For anyone considering a new boat or motor,
We can't say enough good things about Eagle Marine In Sandwich Ma.
After we got the the check point for the weigh in , Capt Mike got on his cell phone and called them.
By the time we got in the river to the marina, tied up, and our fish weighed, they had a tech there with 2 brand new props that he installed for us !!!
