Imagine what's involved in trying to repair/recondition one of those.

Re: Something new (to me) in propellers
i'd like to change my pitch lol. Gonna have to be a special kinda prop shop lol.
While they may be great for smaller boats, it just doesn't look beefy enough for an offshore environment. Imagine hitting a log/floating debris with that? I bet it would mangle it where as a standard nibral prop would just dent/dingSOUTHPAWS

The company claims they are stronger and capable of going on any vessel of any size. It will be interesting to get some hard facts to back the claims.
