Multiple tries are not a possibility due to the difficulty of

A good diver with a wet suit can swap out a small sailboat prop very
quickly. My guy can swap out a pair of 30 inch props weighing over 50
lbs each in about 30 minutes.

Only one guy near here who dives under the boats and he will only do
it for $50 and is hard to reach too. A real problem if I need it done
sevral times.
