Was upriver yesterday and hit what I think was a stump, drive jumped and lost power to port drive. Everything seemed to go in gear ok with no grinding but would just spin with no forward motion. Limped home after 3 1/2 hours on one drive at 7.3 mph. Inspected both outdrives and noticed a scrapped and chipped prop and a scag that was scuffed but not broken, took off both props (the one that was spun was super hard to get off) inspected the hub and saw on one that the rubber bushing was ripped to shreds. Having both props repaired and was wondering if there is anything else I need to look for or pay attention to? There seems to be no drive damaged but let me know.
