    Breakaway screw on 36 Miss Geico ProBoat

    Searched and read through most of the posts about the rudder break away screw, saw some are using brass and some are using weed eater line.

    The only reason you wouldn't use a bolt is the fear of ripping the transom off if you hit a log or something in the water?

    The plastic screw leaves me uneasy on 6s with props trying to break the 100 mph mark. Is Brass the right soloution? Interested in hearing what everyone has used.

    Thanks!!

    nylon screws will work good,i use them always even i combo with ABC 1816 props
    And you need to use nylon screws to keep the hull in one peace an brass screw can rip the back of the boat out

      Awesome, thank you that is what I needed! Can you pick them up at Lowes? Found some online but going to the lake this weekend.
