Stupid question - is it normal for water to pour out of the prop hub after tilting the motor out of the water? I never really noticed this before but it's only the second time out this year and I can't for the life of me remember if this is normal operation. I just had my impeller and lower unit serviced over the winter. It's just water coming out, no chemicals.
