I assume the props throwing blades must be only on boats with semi-surfacing props/high x-dimensions? I have a 7.5" prop c/l and have been running labbed props for 10 years behind as much as 1100 hp in my boat and have never had a blade fail, Smitty

He was asking about the cleaver off the Nor-tech.
Got that right Smitty. When Bravo props are semi or fully surfaced, they flex like crazy. They don't when they are run as they are supposed to. A Bravo drive is not a surface drive. If you want a surface drive, buy one that was build as one, that spins real surface props.
