Default Prop repair--Need recommendations

I dinged a blade on one of my props this weekend. I normally deal with BBlades, but he is backed up 3 weeks. I only have 10 weeks of boating left, so I need a suggestion on another proven shop. They are Maximus props and aside from the ding, they just need a tune up.

Thanks,

Smitty

Call up Pier57 and GrandSport and see if there is anyone they use locally. Just getting a blade touched up isn't that big of a deal.

I agree on the ding repair, but I also want both of them checked and matched since it is a twin application. They have not been touched since 2007. Also looking for a possible performance change.

Thx

Default Just a thought!

Here we are in the middle of our "off" season while you are in the middle of your "active" season.

Maybe contact one of the GFers in the southern Florida area for advise of an acceptable prop shop, contact them. You might be able to ship them down, get them repaired and be back on the water in a much more acceptable time period.

Just a thought...
