I don't usually take my prop off unless I have reason but I have dicovered why regularly removing the prop is needed.
Yesterday I took my prop off and discovered a large bunch of fishing line had been wound around the shaft out of sight and only visable when you remove the prop.
I have seen this about every couple of years where I get someone else's fishing line around my prop and don't even know it's there. It gets down onto the shaft and out-of-sight.
So add this to your maintenance schedule it could save you some $$ in the future.
