A couple weeks ago when the water was lower than today, I tore up my Merc 190 HP I/O prop making my way to Kowaliga. I thought I was leaving VERY ample clearance between a couple of distant warning buoys, and was moving slowly, but a sudden whack! let me know I had "misunderestimated" the depth. I made my way home (vibrating a bit) but when I took the boat out, noted my prop was seriously damaged. Will require replacement for sure.

Any ballpark idea how much I am looking at for a new prop and replacement?
