Depends on the transmissions. I put a big pipe wrench on my shaft when that happens but you have to be careful putting it on and off.

We are in the Mississippi anchored in the current, off the channel, safely.
Went to he ER and heard a spinning noise and both props are spinning. Estimate the current is 3 to 4 knots.
Can this do any damage?
(Not another thing to do when anchoring!)

Thanks,
