boat won't go

[imported_DAVEB]

I have a 1984 Bayliner with a Volvo Penta aq125b engine and a 270 outdrive. The other day I was cruising along at 4000 rpm and suddenly the engine overreved and the boat slowed down. Since then, the boat will go at slower speeds, but when I try to throttle up, the engine just revs up and the boat slows down. Whats going on??

Sounds like a spun prop hub. Try a different prop.

Since there is no coupler on these it sounds like a spun prop hub to me. Been There
