2004 SANTE 210 - Prop issue?

[bjlarsen9]

When I'm pulling kids tubing (Super Mable - 3 person tube), when I turn medium-hard left it feels like the prop is losing traction and there's quick increases in engine rev. This doesn't happen when I turn right, and doesn't happen at all when not pulling tube (whether turning left or right). Any ideas?

If you think it's a prop issue, is there a specific prop size/pitch/etc you would recommend which may remedy the situation? (don't know details of current prop which came with boat) By the way...50% of time is tubing, 50% wake surfing. Thanks in advance for any advice.

May want to check your v drive oil level this happened to me once oil was a little low. I topped it off never happened again

Thanks goldfisch.

I see you are in Elkhart. Wakeside is closest Nautique dealer to my lake. Have you used them for repairs? Good experience?

I've been very lucky not to have any repairs I cant handle myself. all my neighbor's use wakeside and I've only herd good things.
