Hey all,
In winter storage, I noticed my prop seems to be bent / cupped. The skeg also has a very minor (quarter inch?) chip in it (not pictured). Based on the picture, is this something that would likely have a noticeable effect on the boat? Vibration, noises, etc? I'm trying to figure out if this happened while they pulled the boat for the winter, or if it could have happened earlier in the season and if I've been using it and potentially causing damage to the drive over last season.
Also, thoughts on repair VS replace? If replacing, thoughts on Ebay props?
