Wow! Was that you carrying the prop around at the lunch stop? How’d you get back?

Yup, that was me walking around with prop.
Rosco was kind enough to let me use his spare prop. Who hoo, changed in water and returned home. Wow, new prop with 3 hours on it.

Was this one of the Merc Racing Lab Finish props? Or Pro Finish?

Local guy has that happen to his standard 28p Bravo 1 every 150 hrs, cracks about 1" from the hub, like clock work.

Are you running the prop at or near the surface?

Had one of my older Bravo props develop several small cracks in the blade. Found them during an inspection of the running gear. Had the prop fixed and kept them as spare props with new ones on the boat.
