Unless part of your skeg has been broken off, its not needed. If it has, you can get a stainless one that bolts on over the old one. They work great.

After smashing a prop, the prop shop guy suggested lengthening my skeg. But
he quoted $$$$.
So here's my idea...
Extend the length of the skeg by bolting on two strips of metal then
fibreglassing it, creating a smooth pointed end.
I know there are powerful forces at work at the business end of a boat, but
the boat itself is made of fibreglass. It will probably break if it hits
bottom. But will it stand up to the stress and the friction of normal
running?
