I have a 2006 225hp Yamaha HPDI on 1998 20 ft Skeeter. Went fishing today but it was short trip. When I hit the throttle to get on plane all I got was a spin out. Loud and no bite from prop. Goes into gear easily and can move the boat at up to fast idle. But the spinning out of prop begins when I hammer down.
Not sure if the hub blew out or what. Took prop off and did not see anything wrong. But the nut on the prop was not as tight as it should have been but the cotter key was in place and only very minor "wiggle" of prop. It was put on motor a few days ago. Would the fact it could have been tighter affect the performance.
Not a mechanic and would appreciate getting some help.
