If you dont locate someone within driving distance, call Buck at Marine Wheels in Panama City and ship it to them. (850) 763-2889 With gas prices you may well come out better paying the shipping to PC from T-ville and back. They run a clean shop and work on about anything you can imagine.

well what i thought was just a bent prop is turning out to be an insurance claim. looks like new shaft bearings seals plus re conditioning the prop. not sure what else they will find when they open the lower unit.

I hate that for you YD. Get her fixed so you can get back down there and do it all over again.
