"I recently purchased a boat with a 2005 115 Optimax on it, low hours. The motor has a 20" Laser II SS prop on it. I discovered the prop has some fore/aft endplay (about 1mm), and has an almost immeasurable, but clearly there, rock to it. I read that the Laser II is a Flo-Torq III hub design. What kind of hub does/did the Optimax 115 come from the factory with? I think the previous owner might have replaced the prop and reused the factory hub. The prop shaft has no detectable play in it whatsoever, so it appears the loose prop hasn't done any damage...appears, anyway."
