Here is a little bit more information about our sponsor. Special thanks to them for donating prizes, show your appreciation by "Liking" them on Facebook.


BBLADES Professional Propellers operates out of a 9000 square foot facility in the heart of Wisconsin lake country. This newly renovated building not only has a top end high performance propeller facility, but also offers full metal fabrication capabilities in our complete machine shop. The new shop contains all the equipment needed to customize and repair any and all propellers to our customer’s desire. BBLADES Professional Propellers is located 1/4 mile from Big Green Lake, a 5000 acre fresh water lake running 7 miles long and 3 miles wide. The lake is the deepest in the state at 250 feet. Our location offers BBLADES the opportunity to maintain close relationships with the local boating public. In addition, BBLADES has the ability to test locally and obtain immediate feedback on custom propeller work.

The BBLADES Professional Propellers staff has over 80 years of experience in the performance marine industry. This experience consists of a variety of marine knowledge. Brett Anderson, owner/operator, spent 12 years working at Mercury Marine. The last 6 years were spent at Mercury Racing working hand in hand with Mercury propeller guru and marine legend, Dennis Cavanaugh. Those years of assisting in the management and growth of the famed Mercury Racing Propeller Lab were priceless. That experience and knowledge has spilled over into BBLADES Professional Propellers to bring BBLADES into an elite league of specialty propeller facilities. Partnering with Brett is long time propeller technician and prop grinding artist, Bob Lucht. Bob spent 20 years at Kiekhafer Aero Marine and Mercury Racing, perfecting his craft and becoming one of the world’s best propeller craftsmen.

Default Props to win

Before:

Boat came with 2 loose screws. Wouldn't respond to my commands. Wife said they have no top end. Even thou there is a little bling factor, lets face it, no boat should have to use these 2.

After:

Called Brett, said "Brett (I called him that cause that's his name) help me out. Send me something that will give me my control I need, help me get out of the hole and on top easier, and some top end would be nice too."
3 days later, these showed up:
