Prop repair, how much is too much?

[DinnerPail]

Son took out a rock with my new boat this weekend. Too of the blades are missing about 1/4 of the blade. Is it worth fixing or is it just scrap? Give me an excuse to buy a new stainless. Was thinking if it was repairable it would make a good spare.

I would bring it to a good prop shop and let them decide if it is worth repairing. It is always good to have a spare, so more likely than not, you'll be being purchasing another one anyways.

If it is an aluminum prop, repairs are about 50 bucks and new one is about 110 or 120. At least that is what it was last summer.
