Hey RR, just turn it over the other way! Such a simple solution, I can't believe no one else thought of that! Good luck with your new boat Bud, it looks clean.

This place (Thailand) is crazy.
The prop has been damaged, looks like when she was loaded going by the direction the blade is bent so I might look into the insurance to see how we go.

In the meantime, I joked with the marina manager "I'm going for a run tomorrow first thing in the morning". About 3 hours later, the guys have done a great job cleaning everything, bilge, cushions, carpets, anchor locker etc and she's looking good so I head home and open my emails, they've already sent bills for prop repair and cleaning, It's done already! Prop repair was 3,700 baht (about 110 usd) and 4 guys to clean everything, 1,800 baht (50usd).

I think the amount of damage to the prop means it's only a temp fix but the level of service here is pretty good!
