Agree with @PlayDate. That is a real bummer, but everyone made it home safe and it could have been much worse. Hope for a speedy repair. Good luck!

You would be amazed to see what a good prop shop can do to repair a bent prop. Black Dog Props on Kent Island does excellent work.

I have another set of props. I will not rebuild them if it costs that much.I hit a not chart plotted rock. Bent both props. Shop was able to rebuild both for 3,200. I belong to BoatUS. They had to come 50 miles. Got boat to marina then arranged to have the boat halled next day. Saved my insurance company bundle. They would not reduce the detectable even though I saved them a few thousands. Insurance paid 100% of claim less deductible. They did not come and look.
I wish they were that thick. Maybe on an old Mainship. I had to rebed the struts on my 2000 410 DA and that area is only about 1/2 thickI take it the drive tunnels are 2 to 3 inches thick ,just for that reason
Thank you. So my estimate so far has hit $9700. I am trying to source struts which I was quoted $3000 for one. Called sea ray they had no info for me. Anyone have any parts sources for a 1987 Sea Ray 410 aft cabin?
@PlayDate . That's a nice looking repair. Lots of work. Looks great
I went through the same if not greater disassembly. The struts were pretty bent, they (General Propeller) were able to straighten them.

too painful.....to follow the thread. I learned about ice makers, removing tv cabinets and fixing the sliding glass door before I quit. General propeller looks like an excellent choice.I went through the same if not greater disassembly. The struts were pretty bent, they (General Propeller) were able to straighten them.

I think this is a bit unfair in this case. They built the OP's boat 36 years ago. I can't imagine anyone is still working there was present when they built it and hoping for parts is just not possible.Sorry to say but SR has become useless as tits on a bull. Useless customer service. This SR (6th) will be my last because wife said this last one but if i ever hit the lotto and she gone, I seriously doubt I would get a new SR.
