Bravo 1 Prop - Stiff when spinning by hand?
 
I noticed that the prop is kind of stiff (some resistance) to spin while in neutral on the trailer. Spinning in reverse seems a little easier but still stiff. When i spin it forward it is kind of hard to spin (one hand) and seems like it kind of gets stuck, then i can shake it or let go and then I can spin it again.

I didn't try spinning in gear. The boat runs and shifts just fine, both forward and reverse (sometimes it wont come all the way out of forward to neutral with out giving a little extra pull back on the shifter). I have only spun a Alpha 1 by hand (which is easy compared to this) so I dont now how the Bravo's feel. I did take the prop off at one point, maybe I put it on too tight?

Is this normal?

Thanks
