Well, yesterday was a great day on the lake. My '70 Glastron Bayflite 164 w/ a volvo penta AQ130 / 250 ran great. Small idle problem, but once you get past the 'blurbel', the RPM kicks in and away you go. When the day was done, we loaded her up on the trailer, and when i went to strap down the stern, I looked down at the prop and skeg only to find that i list the prop cone and locking star washer . I'm glad I didnt loose the prop, otherwise it would have been a loooong swim. This prop cone is of the older models that do not have the thru- cone lock screw. I can see now why they changed the design. My question is, does anyone possibly have one of these cones lying around on a shelf somewhere?
I found one from Volvo, but I really dont have the $128.00 to order one (My wife would string me up....). A used one would be perfect and I would gladly pay a tad less than new price and shipping. PLEASE HELP!!!
