He also checked the prop shaft & said it wasn't bent bad enough to replace it. Now get me a prop & I'll be back on the water by the weekend. Any suggestions for the on-line ordering a prop?

    New skeggard.I put a new skeggard on my Shabah Z 272 Bravo 111 before going on vacation at Kentucky Lake for the week. When pulling the boat out the water,I thought had rasied the out drive up enough but hadn't and scraped the skeggard bottom nad not my props.That why I put the skeggard on.Also while at the Lake I saw two other MARIAH'S. Have a picture of one at the dock. Both Mariah'S where in GREAT SHAPE. Gary G Here is a picture of my new skeggard
