Is it the pic or does the lower unit look mis aligned to the mid section? Like the lower is going straight and the upper is turned slightly right. How did the rpm limiter work? Did the boat get weird on you, everybody OK.

It's the pic. We were only going about 60 so it just hit the rev limiter (6200) and went perfectly straight.

PS- If I were you, I'd start the legal proceedings against yourself ASAP. Mabe Larry H. Parker is around? :idea:

What type of prop were you running? That's why I personally won't run a 5 blade.

you should have spent the day in the channel broken down like we did, at least the coolers still worked:D
That sucks to see after the problems earlier this season, at least it is an easy fix.
BTW, a little birdie told me the speed numbers, congrats!

Wow you must go to some pretty shady mechanics if that is their M.O. :jawdrop:
A 6 year old propshaft broke, 1/2" past the support bearing. The only mistake is not upgrading the drives to XR shafts and gears....
BTW.... what is a "knuckledhe"??:confused: :D
