Folks,
hope you can help me on this one..
Went out today and noticed at about 1000 rpm while in gear the port engine had a slight vibration but at cruising higher speeds it went away? I have a Rinker 290 Fiesta Vee with twin Mercruiser 4.3 litre engines and Alpha 1 outboards. I struck a piece of wood with my outdrives that measured about 4' by 3" in diameter. I was wondering if that may have thrown my port prop that is stainless steel out of wack? If so, is the prop repairable or am I better off replacing it. If so how do I find the right prop for my boat?
Any help would be appreciated...
What do you think?

Ayuh,... Probably, bring it to a Prop Shop to find out...
