Default prop problem

So i went fishing in henderson last weekend and got some grass caught on my prop and somthing happened to my prop.The motor rev's real high but the prop dont spin like it should.The old man at the landing told me that the bushing on the prop is stripped.I was wondering if anyone has any experience with changing this and if its somthing that is simple.The old fella said the prop shop would fix it for 35 dollars but i know that will take a while for them to get to it.So is this somthing i could fix with just a some regular hand tools?Also were could i get the bushing i have a 50 hp mariner.I was wondering if i could get some advice to do it myself or should i just bite the bullet and wait for the prop shop.thanks
