The prop being repaired is a "High Five" stainless steel. Thanks. I wondered about having the skeg repaired, but figured that would be rather costly? Great point about just ripping more of the skeg off with future incidents.

Ouch.. those pictures made me weep for you. Nothing worse than seeing something busted up on a fellow boaters ride

Thanks for the sympathy! I have been thinking about the skeg guard advice I have received. I like the stainless steel skeg. I'm not fond of the idea of drilling holes when mounting it. I agree that if I hit anything else it's likely to just finish the job of ripping off the rest of my skeg. I am thinking of getting the stainless skeg and then taking JB Weld and permanently fixing the skeg to the boat? I intend to put enough JB Weld into the stainless skeg guard to essentially rebuild what's already been torn off-adding support by filling the skeg guard. I am thinking the JB Weld will hold pretty well.

Any thoughts?
