airmarineinc.com/ Air marine is where I got mine from and can't say enough good about them. They were recommended by a buddy of mine and they were awesome. They also will you allow to exchange it if it does not perform like you want until they get it right as long as you don't damage it. I was super happy with mine and they still wanted me to get them some speed and RPM info back to them because they thought a different one my perform better. They are by midway airport but I would go to them again without hesitation. Actually I even contacted them recently about maybe repropping my kicker but they said I have the lowest/slowest pitch I can put on.

Ed,
Since we have similar boats can I ask what diameter and pitch you went with?

I did not want to say how it would go but I’m was fairly confident it’s not buy a prop and if it doesn’t work how you want it too, you are stuck with it. Some times it can take a couple of tries to get it dialed in. Frank is a top notch service provider.
