New kind of outboard prop: Real or BS?

Don't have any, but my understanding is they cost more than the boat is worth.

Like he said, they are VERY expensive and would probably never pay for themselves.

Regardless from my perspective I can't even use SS props because of the crazy numbers of unmarked, stone ledges in Maine. An aluminum prop is a smarter trade off than destroying the outboards drive system...

That expensive? Any idea how much? My 125 Merc prop is around $100 new.

BTW: I was told the same thing by a number of people. That I should stick to the aluminum prop. Going stainless might cost me my lower end.

Look it up, since you've got to provide size, pitch, etc.: Sharrow Marine

I think for my 115 Yommaha, it was close to a grand where a new aluminum one is like $200...

That didn't work. Put this into YouTube:

Click on the link and then on the STORE, but don't bother, they only support 150+ HP outboards, AND you get the bargain price of $4,995!!!!!!

My understanding is that the local prop shops here on Long Island won’t touch these things. They have to go back to Sharrow if you bend one. That sounds like great fun.

With a $5K replacement liability if they screw 'em up, it's no wonder. With all the granite ledges up here, there's no way anyone should even consider buying them.
