A must read for anyone contemplating buying a new propeller! In fact, you can even read several dozen of the pages by going to Amazon and clicking on the book and then clicking on the "See inside" tab.. or you can simply click on this link to get to the same place:
http://www.amazon.com/Propeller-Hand...der_0071381767

Although you cannot read the whole book, there are enough pages that are displayed for free to give you a really good idea of what you should be looking for and why things work like they do when it comes to propellers.

Another way to go if yer gonna spend big on a prop is thru www.ptprops.com Power Tech has been at it for a while...they speced the 4 blader for my buddy's 24' Everglades and NAILED it first shot!!...and had a hand in selecting mine...if they don't get it right, they'll swap...good folks...
