Lots of vibration. No thrust. The first this I thought of was .... correct.

@fubar If that had been a rope/line it would be worth points here.
 
Yep, you are now part of the club! Welcome!
 
I think that gets you in the club. Most people join with a rope and a story of how long it took to get/cut out. So congrats i guess.

Know that it takes a lot less to cause noticeable cavition , i mean a twig the length of a finger nail will do it.
 
@Foobar
You are still in the probationary stage. You must first launch your boat without inserting the clean out plugs. Then you are official.

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. No thrust ... WTF ... then I figured it out.
 
OK, you're in. Congratulations.
 
No one beats @buckbuck in this game!

That is an additional flotation device!
 
Someone post the pic of the nasty catfish in the grate! I know one of you had to have saved it.
