So it sounds like a real issue was avoided here.... Any marina, will usually and quickly check out your drive after something like this. As Dan mentioned one concern is always that the prop shaft gets bent out of spec. Sometimes it just in not enough to notice. This happens quite a bit with Stainless steel props, and why I have never made that conversion.

In Dan's case, everyone I know that has progressive for their boats, finds that progressive is very conservative to their approach, and often simply replace things. With a boat, it is very easy to hit a lower unit multiple times. Although A current hit may not cause an issue, a second hit might... and then the arguments start, which accident caused the issue... its just not a headache insurance companies want to deal with.
