OK I don't really know how to describe it. While on the water going about half throttle every things fine, but as soon as I go over half it starts to feel like something is slipping and the motor starts to rev up really high.
Anyone know what it might be? would love some help here. I can't afford to take her to a mechanic.

Mine did that one time and the last 3 times it has been great. Wonder what the odds are of it being the prop because that is sure what it felt like. High revs and no speed but just one day on the way back to the ramp.

You might not need a whole new prop, just a new hub. I have a small press at the house and would be happy to let you have at it one weekend if you are able to press a new hub in (assuming that is the problem).
