| Chris, boat places around New England would send your prop to H + H
propeller in Salem, Ma., so save yourself a few bucks by dealing with
them direct. Their number is listed in note 46.1. They can probably
tell you over the phone if your prop is worth fixing. You can UPS it
to them if you don't want to take a ride down there. I've had alot
of work done by them and their work is top rate. I wouldn't be too
surprised if they tell you that you should just buy another prop.

| Based on my experience, the break even point on prop repair vs.
replacement is at around $ 75.00 That is, if the prop costs less
than & 75.00 to replace its probably cheaper to buy a new one rather
than have it repaired by a prop shop.

| I have dealt with H&H a lot and as stated previously, they do 1st class
work (can't tell repaired prop from new one).
However, they are not cheap. The charge for an Aluminum prop is $60
which is a pretty good percentage of the cost of a new one (a 14" OMC
Aluminum prop costs $99 new). They charge even more for SST or
bronze/nibral props (I'm guessing $100+) but in those cases they are
a much smaller percentage of the replacement cost, so it's a better
proposition.

| yea, H&H, I've used them before (probably this prop!) and they do a good job.
I just wish I didn't have to sent it there, etc. Maybe a phone conversation
would suffice.
thx
