I have made several propwash deflectors for both outboards and I.O. units. First, make hinges from "U" channel steel and bolt them to your transom. Make extension arms out of angle iron out to your propellor. With the arms in place, fashion an elbow out of chicken wire mesh and cover it with fiberglass cloth and resin. It's strong, lightweight and rustproof. Best of all, you can make this for under $200. For a full set of blueprints and instructions, send $15 to: Global Research & Salvage, 5000-22nd Ave. N.
