Pics of the prop, quality isn't the greatest, but it's plainly obvious there was minimal damage to the prop.

Mine made a rubbing noise, turned out the starter bendex was barely rubbing. Turned out my key was staying turned in the starting position just a little and was causing it to rub. Now I make sure that I feel the key turn all the way back to run position after I start it plus lubed the switch.

Got mine out on the water for the first time today, since the repair. Still making the exact same noise. I don't think it will make the noise in a test bucket. I think they're going to have to get it out on the lake to hear it. Like it needs the drag of the boat to make it.
