 3 blade
gator tail 35. I know this question has been asked before, but i have no choice i am gonna have to go three blade, so my question is which one would be best? Reason for needing the three blade is (vibration) did everything possable including changing lots of parts, and came to the realization that the 2 blade combined with my hull is the cause. does not vibrate out of the water and have ran a new gator tail wheel and a hopkins. ive had the problem since new. i can deal with it but the motor cant, im tired of fixing welding and changing cracked parts. SO i would like to hear from some one who is running a 3 blade or has acually tried. i find the 3 blade go devil prop on the surface drive does well on the godevil my buddy has. this is what im thinking about using getting it hexed for my gator tail. would like to hear from some one who acually did it.

 Re: 3 blade
Do you need a GD serial number to buy a prop? Not sure myself and was curious?

 Re: 3 blade
GatorTail is testing several 3 bladed props as we speak.
Hopefully we'll have one before long..

 Re: 3 blade
performance wise the go devil does good in the mud for a 3 blade and after i drove his go devil i noticed how smooth the wheel ran, it does not have that slap i can feel and hear on my 2 blade wheels. I know im not alone with this problem, gonna do some digging and testing myself soon.

 Re: 3 blade
cajun ill sell it only if i could find a decent 3 blade that will fix my problem  . I hate to get rid of my hopkins, its the baddest prop in the mud hands down. doesent cavitate at all just bites. reason i went with the hopkins is from new i had vibrations with the gator tail thinking maybe it was the wheel i went to the hopkins and found out it has way more bite, i can take off with my engine trimmed all the way up if i want, my gator tail wheel would blow out half trimmed. it is 1 to 2 mph slower tho than my gator tail wheel, only downfall.
