Took the ole' lady out on our boat this weekend for V-day. While cruising across Tampa Bay we apparently got far enough out of the shipping channel to hit shallow water in which the prop caught something and broke a section off one of the blades about 1" wide, the length of the prop blade. How critical is it that this be replaced soon? Will it beat out the lower unit bearings? Engine is a 2014 Mercury 115HP fourstroke.. No noticeable vibration after the prop was broken. Looks like a new prop is about $200..
