 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
U will probably like it. You can run it higher than 2 blade. That'll help out with the sand.

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
That's my plan, got carb, cam, rods and pistons setting in boxes right now, I want to do heads to but only got 10hrs , but I think with some good mods this 3 blade will be awesome. Even with my stock motor it steps a 4 man bow fishing load. Just only gets about 20mph like that , but dam , that's allot of shit

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
I mailed my 3 blade back. My stage 1 gtr hated it. Only turning 3900-4000 rpm and slower than a stock 85hr prop that's worn down to 11-1/4 in. The reverse power was awesome... But everything else I was disappointed

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
From all the reading that I've done about the 3 blade, it sounds like it just depends on the hull and motor combo. I was an easy 1.5 mph faster with the 3 blade over the 2 blade on that havoc this weekend. that was at the same rpms too.

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
I've got a short transom gatortrax and it was horrible for some reason. It added enough tiller torque to push you out of the boat. I hope that doesn't happen to a person buying a new motor and taking it out for the first time

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
Have had the weight like I've always had it. Tried moving it around and still nothing. But oh well I'll just stick with the two. I just don't understand how I couldn't get any more than 4000 out of stage 1

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
I like a 2 blade much better on my stage 2. It drives like an outboard with a 2 blade, 3 blade has some torque.

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
Any idea how this prop would work on my new stage 2 23hp? I know the boat runs 26-27 with or without a load. Any other prop recommendations fer this motor?

 Re: GatorTail's New 3 Blade!!!
I guess I'm just used to hearing 4300-4400 with my two blade. So when I'm at 3900 with the 3,Feels like it's just boggin . she doesn't wake up until 4200 or so. PERSONALY, I just hate to spend all that mod money to feel like my motor isn't opening on up. That, and the tiller torque. Not a fan. But it sounds like it works good for alot of boats. But mine.. No
