    14 FX20 Skeg Crooked?

    Does this look normal to you guys? I haven't bumped anything or nothing. For some reason it caught my eye and the skeg looks warped/crooked? Or is it me and this is suppose to be? Thanks in advance.

    My guess is that's it's made to compensate for steering torque. You should be fine.

    I just saw on the Yamaha site that the sho has a curved skeg for better straight line tracking. I'm assuming this must be what they are talking about. Thanks!
