Hi Danny,
... showing green, I think you're on your own.
It's probably worth taking it to a machine shop
for a repair estimate. It's really no big deal to
do a brazing repair on something like that.

Hi Danny,
In most cases it is pretty obvious if the
joint has been exposed to seawater and/or
oxygen for any length of time. A "bright"
bronze is recent exposure. Normal power washing won't clean up tarnish.
Any indication of fresh bronze in the broken area?

The guy at the yard checked buck algonquin with
no luck. I did look around and there was no
apparent neglect. However, they had already
powerwashed everything by the time I got to see
it. It is obvious they are not owning up to it
and I have no reason to think otherwise except
the fact that there was no noticeable change while motoring...
I just heard from him and he going to try and
get me a photo of it. The guy at Holland
Marine said he might have some old stock laying
around and might be able to match it up.
I'm assuming this isn't the only boat that used this strut...

Have you checked Buck Algonquin for a match?

So, my prop strut was broken when they hauled
my boat this year. I got, "did you know your
strut was broken? You must have had terrible
vibrations." I didn't have any that I noticed.
Then he says, " maybe you should go to a
regular prop" I said " that set up has been on
the boat 40 years without an issue..."
Anyway. They say that they can't just buy a
replacement and that i need to have one fabricated! for $530!!! OUCH!
