Default 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.

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!

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.

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.
