    Called my big prop shop. They do not work on outboard props.
    Called the shop in Brunswick, They stopped working on outboard props, just work on big props now.

    I have a few large case Merc props that need some tuning.
    Who near Jax to Daytona works on outboard props, does a good job and won't drain my credit card?

    It's gotten prohibitively expensive to repair outboard propellers. You're almost better off buying a good used one a lot of times if it's something pretty common like a Mercury Mirage.

    We have them in Ft.Myers, but with shallow waters there's a demand for repairs of OB props.
