how bad is the damage ? :hammerhea
Well i was the genious to decide to back the boat down the driveway with the outdrive down. So does anyone have any ideas on where i can get the skeg fixed or replaced????? Also How much is this going to set me back????? I am looking for a place either in the Needles area or Lake Havasu.
Thanks
how bad is the damage ? :hammerhea
well lets say, the prop i just had repaired = 1 fin bent to a 45 degree angle
and the skeg = 4-6in of it broke off the tip and also bent
That sounds like an expensive lesson learned.
I hate when that happens :burningm:
Probably about a $500 mistake.
If it's broke off too close to the propshaft, they'll need to take the lower apart (otherwise the heat from the welding may hurt the propshaft seals if you don't remove them).
buy a clamp on bolt thru one from any marine store. I think they're sst.
talk to richard at the propller company he is in havasu

what he said...they can fix it up nice and shiny again :wink:
A hammer and Gorilla Glue works every time. Glad I could help.
