This actually happened a few weeks ago, but I hit an obstruction while on plane and knocked something loose.
The linkage seems fine, motor rpms up correctly in forward and revers, but the prop does not spin. Put it on the trailer, put it in gear (engine off) and you can free spin the prop either direction, in reverse or forward.
I took the prop off and got to the bearing housing and seal assembly and decided this is to much for my limited mechanic skills. Off to a mechanic we go.
Should I contact my insurance company before I haul it to a mechanic or go vice versa?
