Skeg

[walleye1]

I need to find a new place to order skeg's, i have been getting them from skeg depot i think
they closed the doors. I need the smooth aluminum not the cast.

T and H skegs are to corse of a finish. I want a smooth finish.

skeg depot website says they cast theirs themselves, so it sounds like they are cast also

[donsmarine]

start with 40 grit on a random orbital sander',the weld will need some finishing anyway, won't it? Or cut one from a failed gearcase.

Customer wants a new one. Skeg Depot finishes there skegs off, i finely got a hold of them.

[99yam40]

who do you use to weld them on?

[donsmarine]

skeg depot's look pretty slick, i see why you want one, good source!

[walleye1]

Just me, i have welded aluminum for 26 years. I was certified before i started outboard repair.

Will a Skeggard work for you?

These work great, I did exactly the same.

[walleye1]
