So last weekend I hit something under the water and bent my prop. This weekend got the new acme prop installed and was excited to see what gains i would have. As i was reversing the boat off of the trailer it pulled up debre ruining my new prop without even trying it. Talk about bad luck and it just sucks. :evil:

Yuck! At least you were driving and not somebody else.
This is what power-loading does to a bad boat launch. You end up with all of sand/silt/rocks being pushed out from the base of the launch and into a shallow mound about 20' further out.
I still power-load, of course. I'm just careful around unfamiliar boat launches!

I watched a 28 foot Chapparal cabin boat power load before I took my boat out on Sunday. Backed the trailer in towards the normal spot and the bottom just fell out. Guess I will be looking for a new launch spot after reading this thread.
