Thru hub exhaust? Spun prop hub? See other posts for determining is prop hub is spun.<br /><br />Lower unit has a mechanical clutch which could be failing. Does it do the same in reverse, especially above idle in reverse?<br /><br />What year motor?<br /><br />Give us some info and maybe we can help you
