 3 Blade Mercury Prop durability Does anyone have experience with the 3 blade Mercury prop?
I had Calen put one on our level 3 EFI, and it hauls ass, but I have my doubts about it holding up throughout the season. The blades seem to be a good bit thinner than the 2 blade props (big blade and hammer).
I'm gunna run this one into the ground, but just wondering what kind of life I should expect out of it.

Re: 3 Blade Mercury Prop durability Depends on where you run. Stay out of the sand.

Re: 3 Blade Mercury Prop durability Def thinner than a hammer, but i thought they were close to a BB. Been a while since I had a new BB in my hands. Seems like a stout prop to me

Re: 3 Blade Mercury Prop durability I'm currently running a hammer on a 37 hDr with bps mako kit. What can I expect to gain with the 3 blade mercury delta carries? Boat is a 1754 gator Trax cc with huntdeck. Just wondering if it's worth the money since my prop is brand new.

Re: 3 Blade Mercury Prop durability I have a buddy with a level 3 and a merc 3 blade. He's running high 30's. It sucks in the mud and veggies though.

Re: 3 Blade Mercury Prop durability the merc 3 blade is a pretty tuff prop when it comes to sand but the material is soft so if you hit a tree or pipe pretty hard you will get a little dent on the edge.

Re: 3 Blade Mercury Prop durability Would my rig turn a 3-Blade and gain any speed? Stock 35 Mud Buddy on 1750 Gator Trax W/ Huntdeck?
