Post Precision Propeller in Lake Charles
Thanks Scarygary for helping me out with my props.

Mr. Ray turned my POS 3 blade I got from Gatortail into a beast. I hit 33.8mph at 4420. Spun it up to 4620 with another person in the boat while passing some boats (forgot to check speed though). There is absolutely ZERO Tiller torque.. I can run it with 2 fingers on the tiller. That prop would barely hit 28 prior to getting it reworked. It did not have a holeshot like the 2 blade though.

I also had a wore slap out 5 year old powertech rebuilt by Mr. Ray. It is also a beast. I didn't play with it very long. With 2 men, 2 coolers, 9 gallons of gas it hit 33.4 at @4460rpms. It did have some Tiller torque though, but great holeshot. Mr. Ray also blended stellite into the leading edges since I run alot of sand.

I did all my motor work with Delta parts (heads, cam, carb, exhaust).

Glad you are happy with your props. Stellite is some really hard material. We normally see valve seats made of stellite. Brian please give us feed back on the wear of the 2 blade. Ray has done this on many go devil and mud boat props and has held up well. This is the first surface drive prop that has been done. When I go to work down there in the next couple of weeks, I'll bring a couple of extra props to test.

Do you know which Stellite they used? 6 or 21? I've given that a lot of thought myself and wondered if it would be too brittle.

Yes but they are crap on the duals. I went from going 34 on the old pep to 30 on the new one

He is an older gentleman that is a one man show so it may take a few calls before you get him.

I am very happy. I gained close to 6 mph after he worked my 3 blade gtr. Don't get in a hurry because he is a one man operation, so it takes a little bit to get your prop back. It was worth the short wait though.
