How so?

Hi Thomas, sorry for the unkind comment from my part. I was so frustrated with the lack of any info on how to install under water with very bad vis. There is nothing on the web that actually show how its done. I spent 8 hours over the weekend trying. I was looking for that "trick" but there is isn't one. I will build a jig to hold the parts in place prior to going under again. Once again sorry for the rude comment.@@ThomasNiemisto

@@terrystuart380 Lol no worries. For context, this video was originally targeted towards a college class of mechanical engineering students, most of whom have never been on a boat before.

Hi Thomas. Update, I completed the install. I built a jig out of 2x4's with multiple rotation points and clamps to ensure the prop stayed in the proper orientation to the hub. I then used bungee straps wrapped around the propeller shaft to hold in place while working the halves together. Cannot see how to attach photos to send but am considering doing a KZbin tutorial of my own. My estimate was 12 hours diving to complete. Complete pain. All the best.
