Hey guys I will be having my new 36 prodrive installed on Monday. I was just wondering if someone can give me some info on the 3 blade prop. What are the pros and cons compared to the 2 blade. Thanks guys. |

Well as of Monday of this week when I spoke with Prodrive the 3 blade is your only option for the Gen 3 lower. They are getting closer to having another option but it won't be ready for another month or two is what I was told. The 3 blade pulls well but there is some room for improvement on the top end for sure. |

This will be my first prodrive my previous mud motors were a gd Lt and a 35 mud Buddy. I see they list a few New parts on the prodrive website so hopefully mine will have all of the updated stuff. |

That sure sounds good to me. Thank you so much for the info. I'll post my opinion of it once I get to put it in the water. |

I like my 3 blade. Does really well on the low end and hauls a good load. If they can get another 2 mph or so out of them on the top it'll be a beast of a prop |

I sure do appreciate all the helpful info guys. I can't wait till they install it in the morning and I get to go play around with it. |

Well how did it run for you. I just took my new pd out last weekend and I loved it my brother has a gen two and tho empty he is bout 3 mph faster with a equal load of 3 ppl we run bout the same cause my gen 3 has so much more low end. Just interested in how yours did |

I've gotten to go out riding and hunting a few times. I'm happy with it so far. It seems to run about the same with a hunting load or just two people. Seems to run between 24-26 iv hit 27 southbound in the river but I'd call it a consistent 25mph and so far I'm super happy with the way it handles the shallow water, grass and mud that I have put it thru. Soooooo much easier to go thru nasty stuff then my mudbuddy was. And having that mean ass reverse is priceless. |

Yes the reverse is most defiantly a great thing I went with the hydraulic reverse and it was well worth the extra money |

I think I might upgrade to that in the future. Maybe after the E2 kit. |

Bad thing about a 3 blade is in grass it's hard to get on step and in mud it blows out more than a two blade the good jumps up on step like a 4o outboard so hold on when you first take off load carrying is also better and no vibration at all you feel like your driving a out board |
