Banged up prop

[nipper]

I have heard that too Boatnluvr. Aluminum will give whereas stainless will not as easily. Thus, with aluminum you get a severely boogered prop if you hit something, but less (if any) damage to the gearcase.

Do you guys hit a lot of rocks in your area?

[Chomper]

No, it is not normally rocky but I found the one rock that was there.

That's my Luck.

Stainless for me as well.

I've dented my SS prop a few times, nothing major just a few dents here and there. An aluminum prop would have been destroyed or badly damaged like that one.
