My boat was pulled today and I discovered....


Today, she was brought onto the hard and I discovered a first for me.
One of the blades on the bow thruster (port side fan) was completely snapped off, and a second is now half of what it was!
During the season the thruster failed and when I took a look below I pulled out a bunch of rope and rag from the thruster. It must have eaten the stuff while docking. I guess its probable that I pulled off the blade when I was cleaning out the debris. It did give me a bit of a fight and I was working blind.
Has anyone ever replaced the 'fan'? Must I do both sides or just one? Is it an easy enough job or should I plan on $150.00/hour for the marine mechanic?
All thoughts are welcomed. Thanks.
