propeller from turning. Slide the cotter pin into the
hole at the end of the shaft and spread both halves
around and against the shaft.
Repeat for the other propeller.
Be sure that the propellers are installed on the correct shaft. If
they are on the wrong shaft, the boat will move in reverse when
shifted into forward.

Now that your boat is ready to launch, it is necessary to lift it
into the water with a marine hoist or travel lift. This should only
be done by your Fishing Boats dealer or a qualified
marine service facility and personnel.
