I took the beast out on our lake for its first real test drive. Worked flawlessly
Decided to hed back to the dock ( mind you its a small lake 3 min huging the shore and your at Square one) and then it happend. I lost the prop
It was then that it hit me i was a lazy bum. Insted of driving to the store to get a new Plastic "nose cone" I put the broken/ cracked one on. Well it broke more and shattered ( i think) thusly releasing the shear pin to fly out and then forcefully throw the prop off. To unknown destinations. ( muck is honestly 8' deep where i was. prop is gone)
Oh well you live and learn then get smart.(Good thing all the free engines iv recived had spare props And there all interchangeable.)
Oh well hopfully some one gets a laugh outa this.
