Whats the estimated $$$ damages on spinning a prop on a new merc 50hp or is
it warranty work?




$75 to $100, but how new? It should be a warranty item if the engine is
new.


Wrong again, Krause! The warranty covers defects in material and
workmanship. A spun hub is usually caused by some fool hitting something
with the prop. It's a safety feature built in to keep the gears and or
shafts from being damaged. Unless the owner can show where a defect
in material or workmanship caused the prop to spin the hub he's totally
out of luck when it comes to warranty.
