ally prop repair

i have an alloy prop that is near perfect condition, no knocks or chips out or major damage but i suspect one of the blades is slightly out of true so i just want to get one blade straightened and ensure everything is perfect.

Does anyone know of or recommend a prop repairer in the reading/alton/guildford/camberly area that could do this simple job for a very reasonable price?

I've used them - very good work and good price - just ring them first as they're a bit tucked away in a back street lock-up

Before you ask the repair cost ask how much he's got a new one for-you never know....

he just sold me a brand new quicksilver for mine for £60 inc P&P.

38 quid for the repair so that is fine by me, if it helps secure the sale of the boat then that is good value

picked up my prop today, must have been the easiest repair he has had i would say but seems to look ok and be in alignment, 8/10

will see what it is like on the water and if i get my top speed back!

so found out my evinrude is now sold so hopefully the honda will be gone in a week or so and i can breath again.

oh yes and as mentioned earlier, get detailed instructions to his place as is very difficult to find
