Could be a lot worse

Thinking further about that, the SS prop would have sent all the force up the shaft... Might be worth having the lower unit dropped and have educated eyes take a look for potential damage or future problems.

Fished her today,,, keeps on ticking..... fingers crossed

ray spin the prop & see it its spinning straight ////////// the last time I blew it .we changed the prop & all seem to look & run good .But we pulled it & has spun it & it had a slight tilt , wobble /which eventuallywould have lead to a full blown & probably at a worse time ><.

Geeesh, good one Mike, thanks

Glad Clammer chimed in... "the last time I blew it..." Love you Mike, like a brother. Hope we can fish again this year...

Seriously, Ray. It is the main reason I won't run with a SS prop. I would rather sacrifice an aluminum prop than have the SS strength telegraph the energy up into the engine.
