%$%$%$%$ing eninge

Was out around Long Island tonight with the wife. All of a sudden coming around a can, and the engine races, but the boat is slowing down. So I throttle back, and she is moving at 2 knots, check the motor out, no line around it, the lower unit looks good. So I throttle up, and around 5 knots she does the same thing, so I limp back to the Wessagusset ramp at 4.5 and it takes me 1 hour. Put her on the trailer , and brought her home. I am guessing I might have spun the prop, but I am not sure. Anyone got any ideas? Oh yeah around 5 knots she was vibrating a bit..
