My boat is now out of the water ready for antifouling, I was wondering if you can paint the prop and leg also? Some guy told me the other day not to touch the prop at all. Is it worth spraying the leg for salt water environment?

Re: Paint the prop?

only if you use the paint specifically for the outdrive. DO NOT use regular bottom paint

Paint the prop? It's a good guarantee that you'll run in the muck the first time out and mess it up again! :p ;) <br /><br />I read somewhere recently that sometimes there is enough heat generated on the prop edges to cause the paint to come off without ever going through the muck.
