I agree with Griff any machine shop that welds aluminum should be able to do them. (they have for me anyway)
Sometimes it is hard to find a replacement skeg locally. I know I have bought them either online or ebay. I think they are about 50 dollars. I am pretty sure bravo I and bravo III use the same skeg. |
I use a welder that puts a new skeg on and you would never know it. And won't cost more than $165 dollars,It's well worth it,

Personally, I would just grind it off straight and repaint it.

That's a thought.... it won't change handling or anything I assume? |
Second that Griff.

That's what I would do as well. You probably wouldn't even need to take it all the way up to the bullet, I would just straighten it out as little as possible from the top of the chip down.

Do the Marine Tex, $10 and you won't even be able to tell its been dinged. If you don't like the marine tex you can alway grind it off flat like suggested above. I personally like the look of the full skeg. Small skegs starts looking like someone is jury rigging stuff. And I've had some small skegs up to and including no skeg at all. BTDT.

I did the same thing as Griff suggested without issue. If you just draw a straight line and cut it with a saber saw it is easy. Then dress the edge with a file or disc grinder. The marine tex would work fine as well. Sand smooth and paint. No real need to weld it.
