Several years ago, a good friend here on OSO solidly wedged his prop to include the prop shaft into a stump, and the boat and upper kept on coasting. He went back a short time later, and took his shaft and prop home for a souvenier.

Threw a real clean 15x32 LH clever to the fish in Lake George this weekend. Not at all happy. Searching for a resonable price for a new sportmaster to have it back up for the weekend.
The shaft had 3 hours on it, didnt hit anything, 4500rpm, I dont get it?

A few years back I borrowed a new bravo 1 and lost it with the prop shaft . So I had to buy 2 props and a prop shaft at the same time . I dont like borrowing props anymore

These things are rediculous, it is an entire gear set short of a Bravo and twice the price. 
I paid second day frieght to get them in last time and run the boat for three hours, not sure how many times I want to pay the ransom.
yesrej, How did you make out? Did you pick up the boat?
