I think Ski Dim sells them.

You can also get them at Deep Blue Yacht supply, although theirs may not be drilled.

Can a Propeller Shop straighten it? I would rather keep it original!

Yes, that's a good choice since they know copper alloys. However, a machine shop with a press is also an option. We have also had members straighten their own with a press.

If all else fails then Delta Props (site sponsor) can straighten em out and install a new bushing for you if you purchase one of those too.

I have a 6A off a Southwind I could sell you.

I don't think the 2gen SN (MQ) used the 6a/6a6 strut... thought it was the SA-154. Where did you get the "#6" info from?

The #6 is stamped on it. No other numbers. I ended up sending it to Murphy"s Prop Shop in Norfolk to see if it can be fixed. He has a 2 day turnaround.

I also called Elbert"s in Oregon. He said it is SA-154
