Hello, I was going in a little shallow lake, hit the ground (thankfully, appears not stones just ground!)
There are some dull and bent edges only.
This is a 14ft 50HP Johnson, to be used for water sports.
What do you suggest I do, to mitigate this damage?
Bench grinder or buy manual file? balancing using something?
How important is it to repair this damage?
What about that little wing below / behind the prop, which was bent a while ago? should I try to straighten it out? How much/what effect does it have? on what?
Should I aim to make it as sharp edge as possible, to make cutting through the water as easy as possible? or try to make more round like it originally was?
Thanks!
