Better off repairing Skeg or getting Skeg Guard?

[mcu]

Hi,<br /><br />Am I better off getting my slightly bent and chipped skeg repaired or just buying a skeg guard? Please give me some feedback on your experience with this product. It should cost about the same, but whats better?<br /><br />If you have not seen what my skeg looks like already check my site http://www.justgowireless.com/boat/ <br /><br />Thanks

Go with the Skegaurd, MCU. It's a perminent repair,and holds-up well....til you hit that sandbar again

<br />Just joshin, but if by chance you do, it's designed to break-away, thus saving your lower unit in many cases.

I left message on your other posting... carry to prop repair facility... have them manipulate the skeg via bending to straighten... mine was much more bent that your & he bent it back... works fine. Also look at adjustment knob on steering wheel to set torque so when you let go it holds boat straight.<br /><br />fone_man
