Everyone seems to be missing the "new" part of the post. It has less
than the 20 hours required for the first warranty review.........
It doesn't matter because all it takes is five minutes for some
fool to hit something with the prop and cause the hub to spin.
This is what they put a hub in the prop for. It spins so the gears
and shaft(s) don't break.
Look at it this way. You drive a brand new automobile off the
lot and then you puncture a tire on a big nail laying in the road.
Is the tire covered by warranty? NO!
Neither is a prop with a spun hub because they don't spin all
by themselves. You hit something. Why not be a man, admit it,
and spend 80 bucks to rehub the prop so it teaches you not
to be so careless the next time around.

I can agree with your concept but I must take exception to your
implication that anyone who hits something in the water is a fool........

Cap'n Neal thinks anyone who lives at a fixed address, bathes regularly,
and has more than $20 cash is a fool. Really. With a motor as new as
yours, and a spun hub, there is a possibility it was "faulty" from the
factory. What does the exterior of the prop look like? Got all its paint?
Any dings, nicks, scratches?
I would say about 80% of the paint remains, after all, it's only got about
24 hours on it.........
