Well I dropped the prop off lat week, and bought a new one. I had'nt had a chance to use the boat, so I put the new prop on wednesday. I got a call that the other prop was in, I went down to pick it up. They tell me there was nothing wrong with the hub, now my day just went downhill. So the guy suggess we talk to the mechanic, who is a great guy, and very knowledgeable. The counter guy tells him what engine I have and tells him I have spun prop symptoms. Mechanic ask if there is still a steady water stream I say yes, he says you probably busted the drive shaft below the water pump. I ask him the engine will move the boat at all he says no. I tell him I was able to drive the boat back at 4-5 knots, but no more, so he says deffinately the prop, try it with the new prop. So I took the long no wake ride out of the back river. Hit the no wake sign, and drop the hammer, next thing you know we are cruising along at 19 knots.
You thinkI should call the prop place, and have them recheck the hub on the spare?
