Very interesting fstbttms. So this
boat
could back up, but not go forward?
What was the owners reaction to your discovery.

He already suspected that the yard had screwed up when reassembling the prop after servicing it (for a reason unknown to me.)

FstBttms-
Are you going to do the rework underwater or are they going to

I’m going to pull the prop and ship it to PYI. This type of Max Prop is not designed to be disassembled underwater.

It’s always easy to criticize but the problem lies with who hired the uninformed yard monkey.
