Labbed 28 Bravo 1

This prop was bought from Velocity on May 20, 2002. I have about 20 hours on it. Total price on my invoice including shipping was $561.72. I'll ship it to you for $550.00 if you live in the lower 48. Absolutely perfect cond. These props are done by Hall's and work perfect. I ran this on a 280 with a 502 Mag. Much better holeshot than a Hydromotive. Pulled like a freight train on top.

I will be selling the boat with my spare prop. I could spin this 5200 RPM with a lighter load. Nice thing about the lab process is that it comes out of the water like it is a 24P Bravo.

Hey Voodoo, I'd be interested in trying the prop, but I gotta be honest - that's pretty steep for a used prop even if it's only for 20hrs.

John Jan - freight with insurance will be $25 alone. I doublt you can buy a labbed B1 for less.

Hpron - according to Mike @ HAll's Propeller Service, this is a Stage 1 lab. He works some magic with the back side of the blades and thins the leading edges. I didn't want the blade thinned down paper thin as I run on the Mississippi River which is known for alot of floating debris. The blade looks kind of like a Hydromotive when he is done, but unlike a Hydromotive it holds the water on takeoff and in tight turns.

BTW, most of the winning APBA teams are using Hall's Propeller Service. This is why I chose them.

You're absolutely correct. However, if I can buy a new one for $561.00 I'd be stupid to buy a used one for $550.00.

In my mind you'd be stupid to pay $11.00 more than you need to. Anyway, if you are truly interested I'll do it for $525.00 shipped to you. Email me dmyers@fairbank.net or call me @ 319-635-2361.

I finally got the labbed 4 blade RH 28 on my boat that I got from Scott at Velocity. It's a completey different feel. Comes out solid and stays there all the way up. Picked up about 5 to 6 MPH. We just had the Lake lanier Poker Run and Scott and the Velocity people were here. What a great time.
