Looking for a prop for a 4pt hydroplane that will not lift the stern (if it does it pushes the bow into the water, no fun). What should I be looking for? From what I understand back when this boat was built (1959) they only used straight pitched props. That sound right?

Most of these props were cleavers and therefore created stern lift. Normally this was good since the boats packed air and flew.
We have take these props and turned them into hybrid props that carry the bow. If you have some castings, we can do this for you.

Yes they were straight pitched. We hadn't gone the route of progression as of yet.

It is a real 4pt Hydro so I need something that will not create lift because the boat already has the attitude that it wants to run in already built in.
Had a couple props re-worked over the winter. Did a really nice job but they put cupping and such in the props and anything above 3000rps and they drive the bow into the water. Not good feeling.

Thanks.

It would be better for us to talk on the phone.
I want to hear more about the props you had repaired and what you have run so far on the boat.
