[QUOTE="GYPSY400, post: 467085, member: 8599"] Please explain how a stainless prop brings RPM down ( assuming the prop is of the same pitch and # of blades).. not trying to bust your balls - trying to learn. My understanding is that stainless props give more RPM because the blades are thinner and cut the water better than aluminum. Also, my understanding of 4 blade props is that they give better holeshot and ability to stay on plane at lower RPM.. kind of like 4WD for a boat with a sacrifice of top speed because your trying to turn 33% more propeller.
