 I cannot get my freakin PROP off my 23 HP GD surface drive. I don't have a prop wrench that fits it, any secrets or really good lubes in getting these SOBs off? Thanks!

You need to heat the hub of the prop with a torch, until it glows. It will torque off easily then.
Or you can hold the set nut with a crescent wrench and hit the prop blade with a sledge hammer. I use a cinder block to set the skeg on top of so there is little movement of the shaft. Destroys the prop, but sometimes gets it off.

 Re: HELLLLLLP!!!!!!!!!!
is it threaded? they sell prop wrenches at home depot...
2"x.25" flat bar with the appropriate size hole should work.
spray the nut down with a penetrating lubricant like PB break first.

 Re: HELLLLLLP!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Guys for all the ideas. A little PB Blaster and an Eastwing finally did the trick
