Smile BBLADES Professional Propellers Expands!!

Hello everyone!

BBLADES has a very exciting announcement to make!!

BBLADES has purchased a new facility!

We have just closed on a beautiful 9000 sq. ft. machine shop, fully loaded!

This shop is a semi local building (8 miles away) located in the country near by, situated on 3 acres. The gentleman who owned it previously has worked closely with us on numerous projects over the last few years. He is the original owners son and has been involved in the busines since its inception. He has decided to retire and we have decided it is the perfect oportunity.

The new shop has all the machine shop staples and quite a bit more! Punch presses, brakes, shears, drill presses, mills, rollers, ect., etc. plus a few other special pieces we are learning to use proficiently.

We have been working very hard to give our customers the very best products available in todays performance boating world. With the purchase of this new facility, BBLADES looks forward to supplying our current customers and new customers with the same great products, customer service, and set up knowledge as in the past. We are also focused, concentrating and working hard on new product offerings going forward into the 21st century!

Stay tuned, the future is exciting and coming quickly!!

Brett

Thanks guys.

Mike I got your message. I think you are really going to like the 3rd generation CNC'd long hubs from Mercury Racing! They are sweet!! Some big changes have been done to them and they run great. They are "right there" with other #6 drive competetors props in most applications. Speeds range from 1-2 mph slower to 1-2 mph faster than the competions product depending on the set up.


We will be repairing and customizing these propellers as needed in the new shop!!

Hi Mike,

Currently 16 degrees. Soon 18 and 20 degrees will be available. Remember, high rakes aren't always faster, only if the boat needs it will it perform better than low rakes.

I'll call you Mike.
