Default Sheared shaft

I traded for a boat, and was running it the other day when the prop shaft twisted in 2. It is a gas powered rico v hull. Any ideas where I can get one to replace it?

Default RE: Sheared shaft

If it twisted in two it must have been binding somewhere ? did you leave a 1/4" gap behind the strut and the prop dog?.Did you grease the shaft before you ran it?.
