Thats one of the benefits of a SS prop. Takes a lot to damage one.

Chances are you won't notice any difference. I would go ahead and use it
for the rest of the year as it is. Then when you pull it out to winterize
get it fixed over the winter. Good time to have the outdrive serviced while
they have it down.

You musta really been hauling to break off a chunk of the CP like that. My
first guess was that you hit it with the prop, and it threw it up to cause
the damage. If that was the case, I'd expect to see prop damage as well.

Good luck with the repair.

What's weird is I might not have even known about the damage if it hadn't
been for the fact that the river is just starting to clear up from last
week's storms. I had a nice day out and when I got back to the dock I
looked down and noticed that I was starting to see more of the drive
through the muddy water and then it registered that something didn't look
right. First thing I did after seeing the damage was examine the prop.
Not a mark on it.
