I have been pretty much a zombie for 3 days....but final of 2017? I must be on the road to recovery lol.
A good welder could fix that if about 15 minutes and never take it off the motor. Weld, grind, paint done. When I sold boats we had a guy come every Wednesday and do repairs like that.
Ouch! Insurance? Better to make it as new if you can
I doubt that job would cost over $100-150. It should only be about an hour job.
Good luck on the install. Be sure to include pics.
drop the lower unit and send it to a welding shop about 30 miles from here.

Regardless, I will still need to cut a piece of the old skeg off, since it's bent from the impact with the rock.
