One of my twin fins is not symmetrical so props are always really close to it and the set of props I have on it I had to grind a notch in the twin fin to get one of the blades to clear. There is about a 1/4" difference in diameter of some prop blades.

A bad situation with a spark near all those electrical panels. Definitely not OSHA approved.
