How can you tell if a prop is spun?

I have a 1969 60hp Evinrude. I put a new prop on it last season, and now the boat goes about 5mph, while the engine sounds like it should be going 30mph.

Also, it has the Selectric shifter. All of a sudden it goes forward in neutral and also in reverse. Is there some sort of fluid that needs to be changed in the lower unit for the gears?

Thank you for your help.
