[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 209848, member: 324"] that does sound like a pretty good pucker-factor. Just so you know though, you can still go forward without a prop nut. Just don't, for the love of God, put it in reverse. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] My now-wife and I were going to overnight on a sandbar in the Missouri River, with a bunch of friends. Sandbar party. We had the afternoon off, and most others had to work. I did not have a boat at the time. Just a two person Sea-Doo. I borrowed a pal's boat, and took a load of stuff to the sand bar. Tents, coolers, my now-wife, etc. After unloading all onto the sandbar, I took the boat back to the ramp, loaded it, took it back to my pal (he was joining us a few hours later), hitched up my Sea-Doo and then went back to the sand bar. We have my little sea-doo, and a literal boat-load of gear on this sandbar. Storm rolls in. Tent is set up. Skies are getting black. We're standing on the beach, debating leaving all of this stuff and running back to the ramp, when I give her a funny look. Her hair is literally standing straight up. As I watched, it went out sideways, then stood straight up. We dive in the tent, lightning is hitting the suddenly whitecapped water, raining sideways harder than I've ever seen. Unbelievable. Half hour later it's over. Screw the gear, we're out. Get to the ramp, and several of the people who were going to join us, had decided to wait it out in their vehicles, watching lightning strikes out on the water, while we were about 3 miles away in a tent, about 18" above the water. Still, she married me... [/QUOTE]
