Slight vibes - is it my skeg?

[danond]

Can a skeg with a slight bend in it cause vibration at low speeds?

Everything else has been rebuilt - driveshaft u-joints are excellent, engine is aligned. Prop is perfect. Skeg has a 5-10 degree bend to port. The vibration is minor. Passengers don't notice (I do, but I'm a nut).

You might get some OMC outdrive suggestions in the I/O forum.
A bent skeg isn't likely to cause vibrations.
