Outboard Prop Rebuilds

Post by **PrincePro** » Thu Aug 23, 2007 9:28 am

A few too many dings and folds on my Evinrude prop after this season. I'm looking for recommendations for where to send it to get rebuild. I had it done on a shop on St. Laurent N of Montreal, but given I live in the West End of Ottawa, would prefer something closer. Anyone have a general ball park cost as well?

Thank!

Glen at "The Prop Shop" in Stittsville was really helpful. He charges $60 to repair a prop off a 9.9hp (9" blades). PM me if you would like directions/phone number.

Cheers,

You can take it to The Chandlery on Poulin St. (just down the hill behind Rogers Video on Richmond Rd. @ Carling). They send it out & have it back in a week, the cost was $65 for my 10" Merc. Prop, came back lookin' like a new one!!

Good Luck, Cyber Out!!

The Chandlery it is (5 mins from my house). Thanks everyone for the quick responses. The frustrating part of all of this was that I had just changed my props around and put a fairly clean one on. I lauched at one of the Public launches in Belleville to chase some Quinte Bass a couple of weeks ago and ended up dinging the newer prop on unmarked rocks right off of the luanch in 5 ft of water. Ahhhh! The good news is that my regular bay for Bass was still producing even in the heat of August.
