New props for Honda 9.9 hp outboard - 2013

April 2013 - Currently anchored in La Cruz anchorage in Banderas Bay Mexico (across the bay from Puerto Vallarta)

 We got tired of looking for a prop hub re-build kit and place to have it done either here in Mexico or San Diego. We decided that the cost difference between a new and rehub prop was not that much different.

Spun hub. 

 Eight tooth spline. 

  We have friends on s\v Gitane – Ken & Nancy who have a Nissan 8 hp two stroke with a spun hub. He just fixed his by drilling and tapping three set screws into the prop to keep it from spinning. There was no hope of finding parts so to keep it going , that was the solution.

Not the case for us as we have a new motor.

 So we ordered two new props and will have one for back up.
