Default Question about prop hub slippage

weird..
I had the same symptom happen to me... once I reached more than a few knots,
the engine would start to rev, like we /should/ be crusing right along, but
we were dead in the water.. we could cut the throttle, and then power up
again, and the same thing would happen.. we could stay underway if we didn't
go more than a few knots..
just like a transmission slipping out of gear... only *my* issue went away
on it's own.... very odd..

Does this sound familiar to anyone?


Sounds a lot like what happened to my merc prop last year. Nothing

visible,
and it worked at very low speed, but above that speed it was like popping
the car out of gear. As I recall, I paid around $50-60 to have the hub
rebuilt.
