Question Fishing line in props...

No, I'm not one of those guys who runs over other's fishing lines. I'm one of those guys who runs over my own! Outboards were always easy, but this weekend, I backed over 2 of my lines when gently reversing the boat. I now have twin inboards. 30 lb mono is the culprit. I cut the lines, retied and began fishing. Problem is, the turbos didn't spool up later in the day until I applied a generous amount of throttle in reverse. From that point forward, no problem. Ran home 55 miles at 29 kts with the temp gauge holding steady the whole time. The boat is running perfectly fine. Do I need to pull the boat??

Thank you in advance for your advice.
