The prop on our C&C 27 is not turning.
We documented it in a youtube video: youtube.com/watch?v=Pxl4-ZhUdvc (You have to copy and paste the link because I can't post a link because I'm too new here. I promise it's not spam or anything nefarious.)
It's a folding prop, as you can vaguely tell in the video.
The boat has a very clean and recently serviced Yanmar Diesel engine. The prop previously gave us some trouble in that it wouldn't open right away when we put the boat in gear, but this seems like a different problem. We also had an issue with the stuffing box coming loose and taking on water, but that seems to have been resolved too.
I'd appreciate any insight you could offer on the cause of the problem and, more importantly, the solution.
Thank you.
