Drag out the angle grinder and smooth out the leading edge, cut off the bottom. Spraybomb with Merc paint.
You'll be fine.

Mc beat me to it, we did the same thing with our 21 Eliminator and they fixed it and it came back looking brand new. If memory serves we just ground the skeg, filed it and re-painted as Buoy said..

Does that prop look repairable or should I just replace it?

Hi, I can fix the skeg and the prop. Prop repair will run roughly $220.00. I can get you a brand new Signature prop for $350.00. They work really good.

Skeg repair will be roughly $380.00 by the time we drain the oil, pull the lower off, repair lower, and re-fill drive with oil.

Hopefully you didn't bend the prop shaft or twist the vertical shaft. My guess with that type of impact, you probably have other issues besides what you're seeing.

I'd take the drive to Pfaff/Baca. The prop any prop shop can fix it cheap, but I'd probably goto Cutting Edge propellers.

Just need to be familiar with that part of the river. People do it all the time.

We run that stretch everytime we go out. Laughlin to PC or Havi. The only time I ever had a problem was when I came off plain in an area I was unfamiliar with and dinged my prop. Now it's trim it high and let it fly.

I sent mine to "The Propeller Company" in Havasu. Had it done in a day or so and was reasonable priced I think it was $125 and I had same damage as you.

X2 for BronsonHill. Mine looked just as bad and came out better than new. Let them know what rpm and speed your running so they can tune the prop

Prop will be about 200 to fix, if you want a little something different could time to do it more pitch, cupped etc etc. The drive i would just hit it with a grinder and some black paint and call it good.

I have bravo 1 lower here in anaheim hills. It has low water pickup. Take a look at it and make me an offer. You can take it to somebody and see if it will work for you.

Yep and I say fixable. You can leave it on Greg's porch and pick it back up in a couple days looking perfect.

Leave the river running to us professionals CC. I've been doing it for 30 years, did it twice this weekend from Laughlin to PC. I do notice I'm a bit more cautious since I got the stainless hanging off the back of my Sleekcraft.:D

Thanks
