I had Brett do a set of props for me and he nailed exactly the changes I requested. I referred him to 2 other guys on my dock that used his service and they too were tickled pink with the results.

Have any of you guys actually tested your MID RANGE CRUSING SPEEDS with these labbed props???
I'd like to know about any gains or losses in the midrange cruising speeds on these lab finished props. For example, should I pretty much assume that if you gain let's say 5mph on the top end that you could safely assume lossing 5mph in the midrange cruising speeds or no??? Thanks

I can't say I've tested my mid range cruising speed, but the midrage acceleration is MUCH better. I only gained a little on the top end, but overall performance is a big improvement. The stock propeller feels slugish with no pull.

Labbing has so many different processes today that low, mid, and top speeds can be effected depending on the goals.
The old original Lab process as developed at Mercury 30 years ago was about one thing and one thing only...........top speed. We actually kept it that for many years. into the late 90's actually. Now we know more and adjust for the consumers ultimate goals. We can Lab a prop just for mid range cruise speeds but the throttle response and top end will be slightly compromised. Just top end speeds can require more slip and in turn hurt cruise a bit. If a guy want the best of all worlds, the gains will be slight across the board.
You have to look at the big picture when deciding the ultimate goals. If cruise numbers are your goal, concider more blades with a conservative Lab. Just speed, decrease blade numbers and figure how to get it hooked up. 4 blades are usually the best give and take.
To me, Labbing is about silky smooth acceleration, throttle response, a few more on the top end.
We aim to please! Accurate info and your ultimate goals are key.
