    Default Bent propeller shaft was a machinist for 45 years and straightened many shafts.

    A shaft on a 150 up engine is very stout and can be fixed but I would use heat in a lathe this will affect the tensile strength. Maybe check the cost of a machine shop repair to the cost of a new prop. Not good with computer!!!
