Default Prop testing???

I already have a couple of wheels coming from Brett and a QIV Hydro for testing. I am just throwing a line out there to see if anyone in the Central Fl area has/or is willing to loan a prop or 2 as I hope to test on Thurs. I spin LH props and am wanting to try a 28" P5X, a 28" QIV or anything similar. My motor's been pumped up a bit and we think it will turn a 30" QIV in the right conditions. (I have that wheel now) Brett's stuff wont make it here until Friday, so I figure it doesn't hurt to ask around. I know it's a long-shot, but I'd like to have more than 1 wheel to try on Thurs. if possible. But if not, I can wait till Sat. Just have to test in the AM since Monster Trucks are that day too!!!

Kewl...Sat AM weather should be in the high 50's to low 60's. Perfect for what I'm trying.

Gives me an idea for a business. What would some of you pay an hour to go to a one stop prop shop on the water and be able to test their props without having to buy one and find out you made a $500-10,000 mistake. Or would you? Kind of like Mercury's Lake X used to do.

BBlades sent 2 for almost no charge. I have to send what I don't want back or he'll charge the CC for them. Throttle up used to do a test program, but is now concentrating on their CNC props. But I'll have a total of 3 props to test tomorrow now.
