My prop emits a clatter and vibration as engine rpm is increased past 1500 approximately. This prop is a new one but the old worn one did the same thing. After several minutes of running the noise and shaking stops and all run very smoothly.
If the throttle is reduced and then sped up it begins again. This all began last season after replacing the Cutlass bearing. Martec has suggested clutch, engine mounts, shaft concentricity and skeg.
Anyone else got any theory?
