Can a prop be rebuilt incorrectly? Admiral used the boat as a dredge again, and had to send mine out for a rebuild. My spare was rebuilt (came with the boat, I never used it before). It's a 14x17, and besides taking my boat a month and 10 miles to plane, it shook and vibrated like hell. I thought for sure the admiral bent the shaft.
Got mine back, threw it on, performs great. It's a 16x16 and puts her up on plane quickly and runs as sooth as silk.
Can props be rebuilt incorrectly? Don't they use a jig, and re-weld them then balance them, etc? I put about 30 minutes on this thing and don't really want to buy a new one just for a spare. Should I send it out to my shop and see what's up, or just buy a new one?
If I gotta buy a new one, anybody got any recommendations other than the 16x16?
Thanks!
