Can you guys tell me how much slack is in between the prop and the prop nut. mine seems to have quit a bit. if you tighten it up all the way you cant get the cotter pin in? and it just seems like there is a lot of play? Maybe a 1/2 inch.

HI Bnecaise. Welcome to iboats. I have a '61 10 hp. It also has some play between the prop and nut. I thought the same thing at first, but I've never had any problems, so I think you'll be ok.
