Prop questions 06 Puma

[Anonymous]

I have an 06 Puma with a 225 Pro XS that runs a 25 P trophy. I hit a small pile of rocks late last year and had to have the prop reworked. It was reworked by a cow called Murphys out of Norfolk. It seems to me now that it vibrates quite a bit more at around 1200 to 1400 rpms. Id call it a fast idle (in gear) when i feel the most vibration. My other problem is that now it is washing out as it tries to break over the top. It did not do this before. Stil runs pretty good top end. I can hit 70 and it still has a little left. I cant feel the vibration at higher speeds or rpms. My question is should I consider sending it off to be blueprinted to eliminate the possibility that the pitch has changed or just invest the money in another prop and keep this one as a back up? Or should I get someone to help me adjust the motor now that the pitch could have changed. Sorry for the long post.RJ

Sounds like to me you just need to have that prop worked by somebody that knows what they are doing. I have a guy that does mine and I recommend him very highly. Has been doing all my prop work for about 20 years. He balances all the blades on a prop every time he works on them. I believe that is what some people call Balance and blue printing but it is something he just does. I can either give you his phone # and you can tell him I told you to call. He will give you a pretty good deal that way or you can just send the prop to me. Think I could get a little better deal for you that way. let me know if you are interested and give me your email address. Will be more than glad to help. Good LuckJoey Watts
