    Prop Damage

    Any advice? Idled slowly into a rocky bottom. Didn’t hit hard. Evinrude 250hp.
    Dinged one blade and scraped skeg. Pictures attached.

    Didnt notice much performance difference at full speed and prop spins fine by hand. Doesn’t seem to wobble or anything. Skeg is straight. Not bent.

    Is is this something I can probably live with this season or does the motor need to be checked by a professional and prop repaired or replaced right away? Not concerned about perfect performance or speed. Thanks
