DGravelle Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 was out last weekend just cruising with the family and hit an unmarked shoal prop is toast when I had the prop taken off one of the guys thought that the shaft might be bent and said if it was that i would know as soon as i drove the boat. ( vibrations and how the boat performs) also said I might be able to get the rest of the season out of it. anyway I took the boat out and it feels great is there a chance there is a problem and I just can't feel it or is possible that the shaft is ok? any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Baller oldjeep Posted September 18, 2015 Baller Share Posted September 18, 2015 Doesn't take much of a ding, shaft bend or shaft alignment issue to cause vibrations. If you can't feel it then it is fine. If you are worried about it then put the boat on the trailer and check the shaft runout with a dial indicator in a few spots.
