There are a few chunks missing from my skeg at the bottom. Does anyone know of a cost saving measure to get it fixed.

Re: Skeg Damage

It depends how much is missing.Any welding starts at about 100$ there is a product called Skeg Guard which mounts right over your broken skeg.It is a little over $100 and easy to mount.Try a search on Skeg Guard.It seems to be the way to go. Charlie

ROMAN <br /><br />get a couple of pieces of thin stainless steel plating, cut them to size,drill 2 holes through your skeg and bolt them on with s/s bolts. <br />Cheap and it works. ;)
