1965 Evinrude "fastwin" 18hp that runs like a top. But recently the
prop started slipping (seems like it anyway), give it the gas and the
engine revs up but with no increase in the boat's speed. I've been
looking through the archives here and read a lot about a rubber insert
or hub of some sort that wears out . Well I have my prop here in my
hands and I don't see any rubber anything in there. However, the slot
where the shear pin sits is chipped a little, could that be the
cause? Or is the rubber hub thing somewhere in the prop where I can't
see? Anyway thanks in advance for any input. dan
