While I am waiting for my smart tabs to come in I was looking at prop options and I came upon a company that sells adjustable pitch props. Now I know that nothing beats a high 5 stainless steel prop from Mercury but I don't want to spend 600 bucks on something that might or might not work for me not to mention that I am a new boat owner and I would hate to put a 600 prop into a rock and end up buying a new prop and outdrive.
What I really want to know is if anyone else has experimented with an adjustable pitch composite prop and if they had any luck. The one I was looking at for my 2001 Sea Ray 185 Bow Rider was adjustable from 15 to 21, I think. Its a four blade and only $130 or so with my military discount.
What do you guys thing, worth that risk or just bite the bullet and shell out 600 for a high five?
