Took my boat out this past weekend, noticed that the boat runs fine until accelerated, the boat engine would rev up high but it felt like the prop wasn't turning. The mech I called wasnt to specific to what it was he just told me something had to be re-done inside. Can anyone give me a more specific idea of what to tell my mechanic here at home, or is this a problem that I could take care of myself?

Re: Prop?

Could be a spun hub. Is this a new problem or has it always been like this? To check the hub mark a line across the hub and hub area of the prop with something that won't come off. Take the boat for a test drive and then see if the marks still line up.
