Harry, your prop picture caught a lot of flack. Here's a prop picture

That sure is a good looking and shiny prop. I did see a couple of rust
spots inside the hub though. I wonder if Harry's prop is a genuine Yamaha
prop?
Stainless steel *will* rust. It might be 18-8/410 stainless. The really
good stuff is too soft for many applications.

I think 316 or 316L is recommended for marine/salt water exposure.

I know that use that for cleats and fittings but 316 is rather soft. I
don't think they use it for props.
