Sorry to see that lipsticker. Hopefully the lower unit ain't tore completely up I didn't see no oil coming out of it. Was the prop repairable

All at the shop Whitey, Prop wasn't all that banged up but the skeg is off pretty close to the gear case. I'm high and dry for a while. Thank the good Lord I have it insured but still gonna sting to the tune of $500.00

OUCH! Sorry to see that Lipsticker. You're right, it's pretty close to the gearcase in the front. A good aluminum welder should be able take care of it though. It sucks to lose the boat for a time, but at least no one got hurt, did they?

Doesn't look like driver error to me. I'd be talking to who ever put the prop on!!!!!!

Thanks, sure hope so.. The Salmon are starting to bite and now's not the time to catch-em near shore.
