Does anyone make a round ear 4 blade like the old mach propellers.

if you are looking for a thru hub, turbo props makes the fusion 4 for larger boats, its a round ear 4 blade. not sure how well there props are for larger boats but some of their props work good on bass boats.

that one is not as much as a round ear but they do make other ones that look like they are round ear props but i think they are for outboards though

I had used a set of Machs on an older boat and thought they were great. You dont see that design. I would like to try a set of them. They were a great cruiseing prop and for handeling.

I have a set of Mach's that have been labbed to a 29 pitch that you can buy for 300.00 plus shipping. They are perfect and have been sitting on the shelf for years. I haven't had a bravo boat for over 8 years. Doug 916 539-2540 west coast time.

When you ask for a round ear like the old Mach's, what exactly are you desiring? There are other options that may work even better for you.

The old Mach's were a extension of Fountain back in the day. Their geometry was actually pretty simple. The thing I didn't care for was the blades were welded on. This can cause failures. I find it interesting that some other current prop manufacturers claim to be one piece castings when they actually weld the blades on too..........

Allicat38, if you actually are lacking in a certain area performance wise, call us and we can offer some options.
