Sometimes the application of some heat helps the prop let go.  Put a wet rag
over the cutlass bearing, otherwise it will get roasted.  A small propane
torch usually doesn't generate enough heat, but is worth a try.

Listers:

 

    I assume this has been covered before, but what is the best way to
remove a 40-year old Martec folding prop from the shaft?  The blades are off
and the inside of the hub exposed, but the hub is not budging.  Please
advise.  Thanks.
