1998 Merc Force propshaft bent

Just bought this boat. Took it out, ran fine. Was hitting 5000rpm at WOT with me alone, so I was researching what prop was on it and I noticed the prop has some wobble. Took the prop off and indeed the shaft is bent slightly.

What are my options straightening it or having replaced?

Is this a DIY type of thing? I am decently handy when it comes to these things.

Any and all opinions/advice will be appreciated.

Thanks
 
Take it to your local repair shop. They may straighten it or have a used one in stock. If they straighten it. It won't be perfectly straight. But within an allowable tolerance
