Needless to say, I don't want to travel 2 hours in the rain because of a sheared pin. I figure I can get a new prop for the price of a few dozen pins. Therefore, the prop will take the brunt of any accidents. The nails are slightly softer than the pins, so they tend to bend rather than break. Alternative power: A spare outboard motor or oars. I grabbed a hacksaw and cut them to length. 9hp Outboard Boat Engine Motor Sears Ted Williams made by McCulloch - 175 (Greensboro) Offering this 9 horsepower Outboard Boat Engine / Motor, this engine is a Sears Ted Williams brand but was made for Sears by McCulloch, the famous chain saw company.

An hour later I found a few nails that looked like they would do the job, or at least get us home if needed. Eventually I got tired of buying kits and I began to look around the garage for rods similar in diameter. Several trips later I needed more, so I ordered another kit. The trolling motor pins were softer than the original pins for the motor, so they broke/sheared much easier. I picked up a kit for $12 which contained two pins.

So I made a trip to Bass Pro to find a pin that would replace the one in the outboard. The pin is made to break when the prop encounters a hard surface such as a boulder, tree, etc. For a lack of better words, I guess what we did when trying to travel up the shallow riffle was comparable to shearing a pin. That's when it hit me, when I bailed hay for my first time I "sheared pins" on the power take off. I took the prop off and noticed that the propeller was driven by a single pin.
When I got home I took the motor apart and started to analyze every part. So we trolled 2 hours back to the ramp in the rain later that night. While trying to navigate an extremely shallow riffle, the outboard motor hit a couple rocks and the prop quit spinning, the motor still ran but the prop wouldn't spin.
We have since found a public ramp further upstream. We put the boat in at the boat ramp near the Ohio River and drove upstream for an hour and a half looking for good looking catfish spots.

Mcculloch 7.5hp Sears Ted Williams 1969 Electric Start Outboard Recoil Starter. With some starter fluid, was able to start the engine for a few seconds until it burned up(note: better to spray gas/oil mix from old spray bottle, as starter fluid doesn't have required oil lubrication) - Next steps will be cleaning/rebuilding the carb, and possibly cleaning some carbon off the cylinder head and replacing the head gasket if I can find the part. First steps - drain old gas, clean or replace fuel lines, make sure spark plug is working correctly, and check compression. It is a two-stroke, and a great introduction to working on outboard motors for me.
