Hello, my name is Chris. This is my first post here, thanks in advance to everyone. I recently brought in my prop to repair a couple of bites out of the blade tips. When I picked up my repaired prop it wouldn't fit my boat. It was the same part number/serial number and pitch, it looked similar (but had been cleaned/painted so hard to tell of course) and had my last name written on it in grease pen. However when I tried to install it on my prop shaft the hub diameter didn't match up to the shaft. It was not the same prop. Im having a tough time understanding how this could be an error. Is prop repair done on exchange? Why wouldn't I receive my original prop back? Before I raise questions I'd appreciate some insight from anyone who may have an idea as to how this happened. Was my prop more desirable somehow and was swapped out without them realizing the hubs were different? Just an innocent mistake? Its a small town operation, not a large dealer or anything. Any thoughts?? Thanks guys.
Chris
