Last time I needed prop work I left it at Sunshine Marine in Tally and they sent it off, I think to a company in Tampa. Got it back pretty quick.

Shields Marina can ship it off for repair as well, if that's closer. Do you have a spare? If not, this is the perfect time to get one.

Last time I checked a few yrs ago, Gator in Perry was still doing it part-time. Most shops locally send off to Tampa on a week turnaround. Parkway Marine does this as well as the others listed above.

I have used Marine Wheels in Panama City numerous times and highly recommend them.

I'm a month late but will post anyway since might be someone in the future that could use the info:

There's a guy in Lake City Fl has a company named Remco.

Took a prop to him last year. He wasn't able to do what I needed (involved having the rim milled at a machine shop). He gave me good advice and told me what I needed. Wouldn't allow me to pay him for the advice. Really nice guy.

I think he works part time and pretty much repairs props that are damaged (I didn't see any of his work, but mighty nice guy and has done it a long time. Works in a shop at his house).

Might give him a call and see if he can help you. 7609 South US. Hwy 441, Lake City, FL 32025
(386) 965-0051

Only other place I've used is Gator outside Perry (thanks to rocks in Spring Warrior several years ago).
