You have the model/serial# for the motor?
The prop was held on with a Nylock nut.
They don't usually come loose but can strip and back out.
Not very often???
The prop comes off when shifted into reverse.

Yeah I was forward and reverse, but I think something worse happened with my gear shift cable I duno…. It was installed wrong the prop is gone and I ran aground so, one of those claimed my prop lol.

Trying to figure out where to attach my gear shift cable. I had it where my finger is but it jammed, clearly the wrong location! Any tip?

Ahh okay a piece is supposed to be crimped into the housing, it fell out. Pushed hard back in, crimped down again and hopefully it’ll hold if not new cable for the spring.
