- Well, I got to borrow the boat and then I ran it over some rocks.
It only chipped the skeg but it was enough to make me feel pretty bad about it. So, today I plan on making it right and fixing it with the wonder product called JB Weld.

I watched your video and tried it on my skeg. It came out great and it's been 6 months and it's still looks great
Yeah buddy your a good man to get it fixed, we need more young men like you!
When you mess something up that is what you do. My buddy lets me borrow it and I try my best to treat it like my own. Fyi- the repair has held up to this day.
Minor damage to our Skeg over Labor Day Weekend...for sure your video and method are outstanding...applying the same principle and technique to mine starting this afternoon!
Thanks for the video! I just finished this today and it worked great on my new motor (friend ran it across rocks).
Glad I could help.
Super glue and baking soda works even better. Sets up fast and holds forever. I repaired a boat i bought 4 years ago and its still holding strong.
Looks great. Well done
Thanks buddy
Nice work, just fixed mine per your video. Thank you!
nice work, we ran a boat into a sand bank at about 30 knots, slow stop but sanded the skeg back, will try paint job like this one soon.
Going to try this and salvage the season
Good work. JB Weld def comes in handy.
I love that stuff
Great Craftsmanship! And ALMOST 500!
Yes sir. We are getting close. Big giveaway when we do.
Looks good ! This was a great tip video.
Thanks. I thought some might find it useful
Damn dude. Nice work! We hit some rocks yesterday and had similar damage. Gonna try that this weekend. 👍
Damn son! Good job . I’m gonna do that to mine . Thanx
So proud :)
What grit sandpaper did you use?
I'm looking to repair my outdrive so I've been watching vidoes... I seen other say you have to etch parts that show bare aluminum & some say add something called iodine or similar name, or 50/50 mix of vinegar & water, marine primer before putting on top coat. I'm curious why you didn't do any of that, are you familiar with those chemicals/products & their purpose if so why weren't they required in your situation?
This repairs was to some small Nick's in the skeg. I cleaned it with alcohol and that was it. JB weld is extremely strong and I didn't think it was necessary
I just hit one yesterday in the gulf, wish I could upload a picture of it on here to see if its to far damaged, mine was about the same like yours but took off about a half inch, now it looks like this 6 inch gap on the skeg, all 3 fins got damaged on the prop too.
That may be too far gone. But you can cake the Marine weld on it and keep building it up and then sand it. Worst case scenario is you are out some time and jb weld.
@@B_the_Cameraman Where can I get the marine well that? A depot supply store West marine?
@@Bushgator I got mine off Amazon
How is it holding up
Thanks for this,a lady wiped out her trike in the back of my boat and took a similar chip out of the keg.I was hoping JB weld would work,that shit is strong a fuck cheers
Nice
Would this work on a trolling motor with a crack into it?
Probably. Jb weld marine is no joke
@@B_the_Cameraman thanks imma try welding it first and if I need some job weld I’ll use it
WATCH OUT FRO THAT TREE IN MEAN ROCK
Sweet. As bbq sauce!!!
Lol.
Tasty BBQ
What's the skeg's material exactly? ? Thanks!
@ Gerald smulevich- the skeg housing is Made out of Aluminum- it’s better if it’s welded with a mig welder. In this example it is purely a cosmetic repair. Unfortunately, skegs are always hitting stuff in the water.
Looks like you were right next to the shore
How has it held up?
Yes
A little incident...? 😯 you almost sink the boat...😂
Look I was just glad the motor was still back there when I looked.
B Fishing Outdoors that feeling sucks...ask me how I know...😂
Let me guess? Lol
Respirator??
were you the captain of the titantic
almost, too young at the time.
Is it still holding up?
Yes, had the boat out this weekend. It has made it coming up in a year now
@@B_the_Cameraman thanks for the fast reply.
Should have used aluminum primer first ,, good effort
