I got a stage 1 one from calen and still running my 85hr stock worn out prop. Calen said stock gt prop. But since I got some extra power I think I need something with a little more bite. What about Hopkins or an LA tuned prop?

Stock prop is best, you're not going to find a better one for stage 1

I also have a stage 1.

I was convinced enough to try a three blade but hoyt said call back in a month when they get some more in. Guess I'll just get a stock 2 blade then maybe this fall experiment with the 3

I'll probably send one to one of them to keep as a back up.. Does gt warranty their brake pads? My motor Is only 10 months old

Not trying to jack your thread but me and another guy I know lost speed with the new non finished 2 blade GT prop. I can run 34 with my old prop that has over a 1/4 in. Worn off and only run 31 with a brand new one . And his is even more of a loss. Anyone else had this problem?

34 dam. I'm hoping to finally break 30 when I get my new prop.

Oh you'll deff break 30. I run 30 with 3 ppl and bowfishing gear.

Hope so. Right now 3 people 1750 gator Trax I'm running 26-27 with stage 1. Seems slow to me I hope the prop will solve it! It measures 11 inches

Light load just me i'm hitting 28-29. I understand that boat is narrow and doesn't hold weight very well. Guess I'll find out whenever my new wheel and brake pads come in

With a new two blade on my stage 1 I'm getting 26mph with my wore out ass two blade thats missing over a 1/2" I can get 28-29 with Benhunts old two blade I run 29-30.

Shit don't do that

Bitch made me mad as hell when I put it on the first day and went and ran it and then I called GT and they said that they beaf up the props and I was like well man these things suck man lossing 4mph is rediculas.....

When I bought my gator Trax it came with a knicked big blade and I know that thing doesn't back Worth a dam and vibrated terrible. No wonder mb guys were talking about dildo handles other day

Its anybody running the 3 blade on a stage 2 or 3? My barge will run about 27 right now stock. Not bad but falls off quick when people get in. Problem I see with it is that I can't even turn 4k rpms. Seems like it lugs or something. I'm fixing to mod my motor and was wondering if you when you got the power how fast it will run

You'll get 30-31 maybe 32 with a stage 2 w/2 blade. Don't waste your money with a 3 blade if running stock.

Well my motor came with the 3 blade, didn't really have a choice

Borrow a 2 blade to see what it does. You'll gain about 100-200 rpms and it won't lug it down .

Yea if you doing all that it won't have any trouble with it. What boat you got?

^^^^ dead fowl 1954hd. Not the smallest boat in the world, but it would run 32-33 empty all day with the bps motor I had, I'm thinking as much prop as this 3 blade is , with a stage 3 it should haul some ass

For anyone who wants to run the three blade on a stock motor, I've been testing them and found something that would work well if you have a stock motor.

This change will run higher rpms, less tiller torque and less vibration.

PM me for details.

I have a gtr with an equivalent BPS 5500 motor.
If I can find someone with 3 blade around Mandeville/Slidell. I'll try it out & let ya know.

Orederd a two blade from gatortail Monday. Today I opened a box and there was a 3 blade in there..... Guess I'm running a 3 blade now..... I'll put it on and run it tonight or tomorrow on my stage 1 gtr and post back

4100 roughly.
