Both Steel Developments and Norris deal with the leisure market and charge accordingly,if you can afford to moor in a Thames then you are fair game to bilked out of a fortune for a lump of polished bronze.:)
However those of us in more impoverished parts who keep coal in our baths,need poor persons prices.
The prop concerned has serious case of anodic corrosion and doubt htere will be much to weld to.
Far more important will be to get the boat on the blocks remove the old prop and refit new one on same tide.
Perhaps attempt to repair old one later and keep as a spare.
Boat still up for sale for anybody looking for a comfortable boat at a sensible price.Nice new coat of A/F and new anodes.36K.

C&O supply as well. They repaired my 28in prop, badly scarred and bits missing for £60. If it is badly dezinced then no. A new prop for me is £600 with them.

Forward Thinking ! The only thing that UKlunkers need is a Tardis and if the good doctor can transport them all back into some long lost Avalon,the rest of us can get on with living in the 21st century. :)
