Default PLEASE HELP

I picked up some braided line wrapped around my prop that some douche threw in the manasquan. I know what mono does to seals in the lower unit, but what about braid? We unwrapped as much as we could but did not get it all. Should I pull the prop to remove all of the line or will it be ok? Thanks, Jim

Shortest thread ever.

Put a fork in it; this is done...

Don't run it at all until you pull the prop and remove all line, hopefully you haven't cut the seals. Braid is alot worse than mono at cutting through. Good Luck.
