Re: Hit a rock today..........................
I damaged the tips on the same prop twice in two different successive years. The first time bit into a bit of clay. Could not motor much above no-wake and pivoting the boat was horrible, as the stbd prop would not make much thrust at all. The following year just pinged rock while turning around to anchor and it was almost as bad. I had a spare set of props so I could haul the boat and put it back in same day.
Find out what size you have a keep an eye out on CL and other sites. For a few hundred bucks you can have a garage ornament that you may never need... but if you do they'll come in handy!!
