Hi all,
i have a Raker 24 which has been hit on a slipway when recovering whiles engine got put into foward gear to help recover, all 3 blades hit the bottom and all 3 edgers are badly damage as they are all like folded up well over a centimetre from edge and bits missing from edgers, my question is ,can it be mended ?
I will try to post a pic as i never done so ,and i must be doing something wrong .

I used 'propeller evolution' (i'm sure that was the name) to have a very expensive spinelli cleaver repaired. Mainly it needed a new bush, but they took a few dings out too. They were incredibly good and very cheap, said they could repair pretty much any damage up to the prop being folded in half.
I'd give them a bell, i'll see if i can find the number.
