I stand corrected. I'll give myself 1 lash.

I was thinking of MaxProp.

Come to think of it, Martec is a good prop for
Swabbie. He can put sponges on the end of
it. He knows how to use it.

Bart,
He said it was a Martec folding prop. Yes, the
pitch is adjustable - if you send it to the
factory to have the blades ground or new blades
put on it.
S.

I think you're putting us on Nutsy,

I've sent my Martec back for service several times. Never has it been
over $200 bucks. You're right about them coming back as good as new.

My Martec has been my main prop for about 15 years. My Std Prop has been
riding around in my truck since '96. The Folding Prop with the
Streamline Tips is the better prop. (Thanks to Mary's recommemdation at
Martec) Both will be going with the Sale

Scotty,

Has anybody, ever been able to explain ANYTHING to Nutsy?

You're wrong about this, Thom. It was Steve who claimed it was
expensive. In the case of the J30 prop, it needed a LOT of work. I
posted the Martec info showing it's typically 175.00. Take this up with
Steve, who claimed reconditioning was close to the cost of a new prop!
A new prop for the J30 would still have been around 800 bucks, more
than twice the cost of reconditioing.

Sorry, Scotty...I was the one who posted 175 for average repair from
Martec. And your girlfriend was the one who actually claimed that it
was almost as expensive as a NEW PROP!

STEVE WROTE: "Easy and cheap? By the time you send them back,
get new blades, have the hub and your new blades
drilled for an oversized pin and have new stops
welded on the hub you've spent almost as much as
buying a new prop. "

BUSTED!!! I was right yet again!!!!
