just came from the boat. backed her into the slip kicked up the outdrive and swapped out the prop.
took her for a little spin and it worked.
saved the rest of the season.

the boating season is so short up here anyway, that if it lands on a sunday we usually do a picnic.

now, can the ss prop be re-hubbed?
approximate cost?

:news: That was simple!! You must be the luckiest guy in the world!

you might be right, fruity pants.

:clap:Dodged a bullet on that one Chuck. Glad it worked out for you.

Now take the family fishing.

been. only lost one day due to prop swap. only took an hour but i had a dr. appt. also so the day was pretty much shot.

Gues this means I wont be getting Charlies hartop.

You should get that prop fixed and keep one on the boat as a back up. O have seen them so bad that the boat won't even move.

You know it..... has anyone seen a picture of this man!!!!!! surely hes blessed....lol:head::clap:

blessed i am.

hey hammer, stay tuned. may sell after the season.
nothing wrong with it but need to go a little bigger and most likely a center console.

dont know yet if i'm gonna sell with or without the top.
may sell em separate. whichever brings more cabbage.

on the other hand i got a big year coming up in terms of money. (out going, not incoming).

psl's for my sesason tickets and just trying to catch up from the summer.

who the hell knows.

gonna hafta think long and hard.

Woo hoo - glad to hear that was the problem! I agree, get that one fixed and use as a spare... or vice versa.

Now, we want pics!!! New ones - don't try to fool us into believing those old pics are new either pal.

:sun:

I just rehubbed an aluminum prop for about $50 bucks. It is definetly worth doing as a back up.
