Vibration

I hit a small stick this weekend and now I have a vibration. Looks like the prop is bent slightly but not even .25 of an inch on one blade. Is that enough? Any recomendations on where to get it repaired and how much..

You should have it fixed. It shouldnt cost much and just call your repair shop and they should be able to refer you to a prop shop. I've had that happen a couple of times myself

1/4 inch is a lot man, that will definately vibrate.

I hit a stump about a month ago and bent one blade on my prop about .25 or .50 inches and it vibrated enough to scare me going back to the boat landing. A prop shop should be able to bend it back if its not horribly bad. they told me it would cost 60 dollars. What kind of boat and prop do you have?

I have an oj, I have bent it back before myself but it did not vibrate then. I will try, if not send it in.
