Default RE: spot the diffrence

hey !
im running octura rudder and strut with a home made bracket , cuz of the deadrise angle !
lol i just came back from my cottage and it ran great ! also not havving the lip on either side , it make the water come up and have more a diffrent displacment ! and for a strange reason it carves the turn better!
but any way , i was running it in the lake pretty hard , came up and down a couple of swells ! and then all of a sudden STOP
the rudder worked , cuz i saw it move , and so did the motor , cuz when i fired it up you could see the boat rool cuz of the motor torque ! !
so i get in my canoe and find that there is no prop !
i look in the hull and i can see the flex shaft but it doesnt come out the end !
so its gone , to the bottom of the lake ,
i lost the prop half of the flex shaft !
oh well
