[QUOTE="scn, post: 5650525, member: 1859"] I remember hitting two things down in LA. After the hurricane, I hit a big board that was "new" to that spot. It was a thump, but did nothing to the prop and didn't seem like a big deal. I also hit a rock in a submerged rock jetty. I was at idle speed, and got one little ding on the prop. Neither was an immediate concern for me. So, who knows? My biggest mistake was not doing the annual type service in removing the prop and checking for line, and doing the lower unit lube. Had I done those, I likely would have caught the issue in time to prevent having to get the whole lower unit. I suspect your greasing of the threads/castle nut makes that a non issue for you. And, yes, it doesn't take long in saltwater for things to go bad. [/QUOTE]
