"Are you saying that in the pa

"Are you saying that in the past the engine with this propeller functioned properly but now when you apply throttle, the engine increases in rpms as it should BUT the boat does not?

If so, I would strongly suspect that the propeller has a spun hub. A propeller actually consists of three components, a bronze hub, the propeller itself, and vaulcanized rubber between the two. If the rubber fails, that allows the hub to spin within the propeller.

The cure would be to either have the propeller re-hubbed at a propeller repair shop or replace the propeller."
 
On the side of the exhaust hou

On the side of the exhaust housing there is a small plate (held by two screws) remove it and check to see if your shift connecter is still connected.
