Tried to go out to the MRGO Wall today but had boat problems. The motor would run just fine and the propeller would spin just fine out of the water. Gave it throttle in the water and the motor would just Rev really high but no power to the propeller. Took the prop off when I got home and see what appears to be scared up metal. See pics below. Any ideas to what is the problem?

99% sure spun hub bc i had that exact problem.

They fricked me good a while back.

But I have a spun hub a couple months ago. I brought it across the street from the prop shop to acadiana prop. They fixed me up in 20 minutes and it cost $48.

If you spun a hub, you should be able to just put a new hub kit in the prop. No need to go to the prop shop.
