Of course we do those repairs in house as well as blueprinting of skegs for performance applications. These include Bravo 1 drives and Bravo 1 Sportmaster drives as well as #6 and M8 drive.

I'm sorry I don't have a go to for you in your location. If you decide to take it off the boat (quiet easy) you could conceder shipping it to us.

Well................ Removed the skeg guard and................. 54 mph. Zero improvment!!! skeg guard had ZERO affect on speed or handling. Now below, the skeg isn't perfect, but most of it is there. Let me guess the next post.."the 2 - 1/4" holes and bottom of the skeg is causing............" . Since this is no longer about a prop vers WFT is going on. I think this thread has served its purpose, and steered its course. The next task is to verify my tach gauge and make sure the rpms its showing is correct.

Thank you all for the info. :)

Some marine tex, sand paper and paint and you can repair that skeg by yourself cheap.
