First Off.. A Big Thanks to all of you...<br />I purchased a used 1987 Wellcraft Classic 170 <br />with 130hp 4cyl. Right away my first problem was <br />bad acceleration. This website helped me quickly confirm the carb and I got it rebuilt. Last saturday was the first day back in the water.<br />Yeah.. it runs great, very smooth all the the way to WOT. On my way back to the dock I really hit something good. On the trailer I noticed me prop was shot, nasty gouges..back to the prop shop for shure. But what bothered me was the prop shaft would click when spun. I'm a novice here , is this something I can attempt to fix , or look for a mechanic. <br />Thanks Again..you all are very helpfull.<br />Dean
