Propeller blades "work" with attached water flow - 1mm of growth on a blade
causes loss of approximately 12% of its efficiency - so keep the blades clean.
Remove any growth on the blade gear teeth.

Loctite 248 is a medium strength Threadlocker Stick that is sold to be used under water. Apply the 248
to clean dry threads out of the water and make sure the wax based product is thoroughly pushed into all
of the threads (no air gaps) before taking the fastener below the water. It takes 24hrs for full cure after
installation. Loctite 248 blue stick can be purchased from Fastenal

Vibra-Tite VC-3 is an automotive product that can be used under water. Apply to the fastener threads,
let dry for 10-30 minutes and install below water. VC-3 is available from most auto parts stores - we have

apply it under water will ultimately fail/wash off
