Any Good Prop "Education" Websites?
 

I'm looking for some websites that go into prop design, and the effect of design variables on boat performance, such as bow lift, top speed, cavitation, etc. I'd just like to learn a little more about what goes into prop design, and how to pick them.

mercury racing.com and just call julie at throttleup prop or brett at bblades

Michael,

One the very best web sites for educating yourself about propellers is this one. Spend some time reading through the archived threads of the OSO Prop Talk forum.

I don't think that you're going to find what you are looking for on the web. I did a search and found a textbook. I think it was named "Secrests of Propeller Design." On this site you'll find plenty of experience with what prop on what boat, but I don't think that you'll ever get into the design end of propellers. The folks here who are familiar with propeller design will chime in with answers to specific questions, but you aren't ever going to get the full lesson because it is a pretty long winded subject.

Everything you ever needed to know about propellers 4th edition. Written by my role models. I'll check if iot is still available.

It doesn't cover design ing propellers though.
