A buddy recently bought a sweet Wellcraft V20 with an MR-1 outdrive. The stainless steel prop is seized to the propshaft. Never had a stuck prop myself [no such thing as too much grease], so I am unsure how to get it off the shaft without damaging the hub. Anyone have any ideas ?

Use a prop puller or
Heat the outer part untill it pulls off the hub and cut the inner hub part off the shaft.

spray it with some PB Blaster, then wait an hour and spray it again, then use a prop puller, if that don't work like BT Doc said, break out the heat.
