I missed the part about the strut and shaft. I lost a shaft on my St. Insurance covered it all and then some since I saved them a bunch by doing it myself and I put on a dripless seal. Parts for a new prop, staft, strut bushing seal was about 1500 Insurance posted about 2k
Google skips propeller in charleston sc . Can repair about 130. Used them several times

Sorry to hear about your experience on Jordan. I boat there too and I cringe when I have to boat after a hard rain when the trees and trash come in from the Haw River. Unfortunately, there are even some cut tree stumps in 15' of water and above, really crazy lake to boat in. Thanks for giving the location, that helps. I sent my prop to ProMarine in Greensboro, did a great job I think. Best of luck. Hope to see you out there next time. JY
Take your prop off before you take it in. Have insurance replace it. Then send it to skip's for repair and you have your backup ready to go next time you have a minor event.Quote:

$1100 labor
$500 or so in gel coat repair. I only had a tiny bit of spidering where the strut mounted. I didn't even see it but the dealer said if you are going to go through the insurance you might as well just do. The fiberglass guy looked at it and laughed saying he wouldn't waste the $ to fix something so small, but I said just do it since it wouldn't cost me anything.
went through the insurance and paid my $1000 deductible and they covered the rest. Good as new!
We boat at Jordan all the time. I hate this happened to you and hope for a speedy repair and not much out of pocket. I've got a small ding in one blade and a small split in another blade from Jordan and didn't even realize we hit anything so I'm not sure where it was. Thanks also for the location, we will stay away from there.
I will do indeed.......Thanks for the info! I have a "future" brother in-law that has an 2009 LSV and he sent his prop off to there before too. I have heard good things about them thus far.
So you know the sickning feeling when you heard the sound then and the moment you finally seen it out of the water!! I am still sick over it!!
For all that want to see the raw video that was going when the strike happened.
