looking at the picture (upside down)…. if that is the broken skeg in question and the gears are or seem ok you could just rebuild the  skeg tip with JB weld… see pic of my rebuilt skeg on my 75hp ETEC ..a  $10 version of  a 300$ weld job.  $300 convinced me  to give it a try and  now after a coulple of years  the repairs have held up. Not perfect some would say and  ” touching” a rock  would  not see it survive but I could always fix it again cheap..

I just clamped a  6 inch  gyproc spatula on one side of the skeg and filled up with JB ,   sanded the  repairs and painted  ETEC blue … I was satisfied  with my repairs..!
