Re: shudder & pulling right
The bent skag cant be helping maters any. Most motors pull to the right because of the torque of the motor. Does your motor have a torque tab? Did this problem become worse after you bent the skeg? You should have a mechanic look at it. If the prop is damaged or the skeg is bent enough to cause the prop to worbal you run a chance of ruining the gears, clutch and prop shaft in your lower unit not to mention what kind of stress you are putting on the motor.
