 2 blade or 3 blade Need to order a new prop and was debating on what to get, 2 or 3 blade? I got a 2012 GTR35 w/ carb, exhaust and putting a PVT cam in it right now. Its on a 16x54 homemade mud boat. Before with just carb and exhaust I was running 28-29 with me the wife and two small kids and fishing gear at about 4200-4300 rpm with a worn out 2 blade. What prop yall think will do best for me? Thanks

Re: 2 blade or 3 blade How bad will a hammer prop kill my rpms? And I run a good hunting load in the winter but pretty light in the summer.

Re: 2 blade or 3 blade Probally 100 to 150 rpms lost, but hole shot is awesome

Re: 2 blade or 3 blade I might have to try one out and see how it does before I order one. All I know is I need something cause the one I got is shot. What is going on with the new GT props?

Re: 2 blade or 3 blade I would agree with yall on that, my old prop ran great just worn out fast. I'm going to try my buddies hammer and see how it does. Does anyone around the Slidell area have the new 3 blade and willing to let me test it out in deep water?

Re: 2 blade or 3 blade They should offer all three. They would make a ton cause most everyone would have all three.
2 blade Performance prop
2 blade hunting prop
3 blade deep water prop.
