I managed to hit something in shallow water and bent the prop- a small bend of about an inch. It is an aluminum prop. Can I straighten this myself or should it be sent off for rebuild? I haven't noticed any vibration.

Re: bent prop

Bring it to a prop shop. You may be able to visually repair the damage but you will never get it balanced nor pitched by eye.
