Awesome service thru bblades. Brett is awesome! My last 28p Bravo lab job netted 4 mph GPS gain. Have also worked with Todd @ hydromotive with great results.

Frank and Jimmys, ft lauderdale, fl
|
I've used Cutting edge, and Merc labbing. Had great experience with both.
|
Brett at Bblades has always had great service and a great product. You have to get past Brad to talk to Brett, that's the key. I will say that prop work has increased in price in the last 5 years...drastically!
|
I have had a lot of luck with BBlades.
|
Frank and Jimmies treated me great.
|
Bblades, has done two for me, impressed with the results on both. About 2mph each time.

B & B Propeller Service in Fort Worth Texas. Ask for Bobby.

^^^ can we just keep this between us please because I know those guys and they can do a good job for the average family boater. I would not recommend anything performance related. Again not a dog to them but performance really is not what they do at all.
I do use them for the stock family rec boat crowd that just cruises around the lake from time to time. Again I am not dogging them in no means at all - just true performance is not what they specialize in. |

Hering always. Big difference since Jim bought company back....super sharp. Racing cant be any different You want the most out of your prop

Have a question.
Right now, my best prop by far (out of tons I've tried )has been labbed by who knows who. It works so good, I don't want to change a thing but I now need to go up in pitch due to other reasons. Can any of these companies copy this prop to a T ? If so, how do they ? |
Performance propeller in soddy daisy TN does an excellent job.

What do you guys think about the benefits of sharpening the blades. A friend of mine said its good for 100 rpms. BBlades has a set of my props now, I may ask to have them sharpen the blades or at least get Brett's take on it.

Just really want to know if it can be duplicated if it's sent in. I do not know processes other than 'Labbers' keeping notes on the props they do. I'm not a blind faith person on things like expecting a first lab attempt working perfectly the 1st time. Again, I have this one prop that does all. Because of some boat mods, the boat gained a bunch of speed and rpm (700 over where it should be) and now faced with repropping or re-gearing. |
Scratch re-gearing. Just hit the calculator. If I drop to 1.36 from 1.47/1.5, then I'm still 300rpm over rev with same prop and slip and speed. The boat should go faster bringing rpm's back to peak hp, so if I increase speed, it will rev even higher. Back to duplicating a prop but in another pitch.
