Boating Season might be over... Prop damage...
#1
So, I noticed a slight vibration at slow speeds and low rpms with the starboard motor a couple weeks back. I normally check the leading edge of my props and there are a few minor little nicks so I know that it should be addressed. Got back from the Buffalo Run yesterday and tucked the boat away. Checked on it today and saw two small tears in the trailing edge of my starboard prop.... Not sure if it can be repaired or if I will need a new prop...

I would call Murphy's Propeller in Virginia Beach, VA. I have had them blue print numerous props, and their machine shop can fix almost anything, not just hot-rod props, but all props, and they are good at what they do.
