Comments like yours just stir up controversy and create rumors. The lower unit had the bullet busted off and the prop was still on when the boat was put on the trailer. By the way the boat came back on one engine running 55 mphand there was no damage anywhere else. Get a better source or go to the runs yourself

Glad that was all. Wasn't trying to stir up anything. Don't do Poker Runs , nothing personal - just not for me.

That was fun!! See you on the Key West run. Three to four footers would make it a little more exciting.
