Hey all, brand new boat owner here. Got a 1971 40hp Johnson 40EL71B that i got revving up great, but once i hit half throttle and above, it almost feels like it's braking and revving/slipping. From what i've read everywhere that's a spun hub- but this prop seems to be a pin drive (or shear pin). Is there actually a hub in here too? Looks too tight for that- but maybe it's more on the other side.
Also, if that's not the cause, do you suspect that my anit-ventilation plate and prop is too high for the boat which is causing the slippage/ventilation?
Thanks!
