Shaft goes through prop

[schmidp]

Hey, I just wanted to give a short update that I have not been able to dive to check if the blades are moveable. I was using a rotating wire brush to clean up a rusty area on the boat and one of wires detached from the brush and shot into my leg...

Ooh, that is nasty.
I hope you make a rapid recovery.

That under skin photo is clearer than the underwater propellor photo?
Technology is amazing !
Good luck speedy recovery

Hope that piece of wire is soon removed so you can get back to sorting out gearboxes and wiggly propellers.

That's really unlucky.

Perhaps change the thread title to "Wire Goes Through Leg".

Hehe I tried but could not find out how. Anyway the wire is out and after only two days I barely notice the would anymore. Still can't go into the water though.
