Well , it's finally happened and we're stuck here for at least a week waiting for a new prop. Ro-sham-bo with granite and "rock beats scissors." We don't have a spare so the old prop will be repaired and be our spare. The new prop will have a different pitch so will be an improvement.
I guess it's our time. Bought the boat in 2014....our first boat. Learned to drive and navigate in the Puget Sound, thanks Scott! Discovered the Inside Passage so took the boat to Glacier Bay, back around Cape Scott and outside Vancouver Island. Down the Pacific Coast to the Panama Canal. Back to the US via the Keys and now in the Georgian Bay by way of the Loop, 2019.
On this side of Canada they want $1400 Canadian to haul and block. United Propeller wanted $5500 Canadian for a new prop. How do Canadians afford to boat? Ordered Michigan Wheel(same prop) from Discount Prop in Florida for $1700. Looking for a diver but no one is returning my calls.
Geez! Thank God our boat has been so reliable...can't take too many more budgetary hits like this. Hey, anyone know of a cheap prop that can slice through granite???
