I hit a rock going 25-30 mph on Sab 5 years ago, destroying my skeg, my aluminum prop and just tweeked my shaft. I expected to see an oil slick and was extremely lucky that was all there was for damage. I would hate to have had a stainless prop on.

Aluminum props are a good idea up there. Also make a trail with the gps everywhere you go. Even with a trail marked, it does not ensure you will not find a hazard next time thru. If you come across a hazard that is not mapped,hit a waypoint, (I prefer the skull and crossbones icon for these). Be safe,be alert and be cautious
