Thumbs up Houston Propeller RULES!!!!!!!!!

Sent my prop to Darin over the winter like so many others here did. Had the boat out last weekend at LOTO. The best way to describe it is, " It runs like a raped ape" Unbelievable amount of performance gain, better hole shot. better top end. Darin, you RULE man!!!!!!!!! Thanks again, 88

Balanced, labbed, cupped, and polished. Top end has to be at least 10 mph. Went from a 4 blade 22p to a 3 blade 23p mirage withall the work done. Talk to Darin, give him as much info as you can about your boat and he'll set you up. Later, 88

Everyone knows Darin does great work, but you cant really compare 2 completly different props like that.

Not trying to campare, I was running the wrong prop for my boat. After talking to Darin, his suggestions and work on the 3 blade made all the difference. No one else could give me the info I needed on the right prop for my boat. Darin set me up.
