As props hit the water, one or a few hit it harder then others. No matter what you make them out of, there will be deflection and metal fatigue. On their test run, you can actually see half or more of the props are out of the water, even with out "re-entry". Some one need to do some testing, may be more blades and smaller, to reduce the stress levels on the surface. I don't know just guessing, but I wish them luck. Vibrating could be detrimental, but sometimes faster is actually better to reduce the vibration.
