First brought the boat to neutral then turned it off, raised the motor and saw the missing prop.
After we got back on the trailer, I noticed the missing prop shaft. Got the boat to Redmonds and just received word that Mercury warranty is covering the issue. The down side is we have no idea where the prop and part are...I failed to save the spot on the GPS.
