Broken skeg
As reported earlier I broke off the skeg of my mercruiser unit, or most of
it. A trip to the repair shop and a Skeguard attached. $179 plus install, two holes and bolts. I have not had it in the water yet but looks to be a good product. If I'd know about Skeguard I could have installed it. I believe it was mentioned to me when I first posted but could not find it then. I can now. At least I did not need a new lower unit. Watch out at Lake Havasu in Arizona, poor ramps. -- Jim and Dinah Gemmill o_o_o_o /| ,[_____], |ŻŻŻL --O|||||||O- ()_)Ż()_) ŻŻŻ )_) (o o) --ooOo-(_)-oOoo--- |

Do you live in Havasu or frequent there? We are considering buying a second
home there and want to talk to someone. The last time I was there the Bridge was just completed, it may have changes some since! Don Dando "Jim Gemmill" wrote in message ...

I just visited for the weekend. It is growing fast. Wal-Mart, Home Depot and everything in between. Looks like a nice place to winter. You probably know summers are brutal. I belive there is a state park with a better ramp than I chose. Jim and Dinah Gemmill o_o_o_o /| ,[_____], |ŻŻŻL --O|||||||O- ()_)Ż()_) ŻŻŻ )_) (o o) --ooOo-(_)-oOoo--- |

Watch out at Lake Havasu in Arizona, poor ramps. I've had some problems there myself. What do you think of Lake Pleasant? |

I think the ramps at Pleasant are ok, but the lake is crowded. Havasu is growing very fast. Nice place to winter, but summers are brutal. |
