Saintly Fish Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 As the title really, which ones best to go for? Are they much of a likeness or is there a model that’s better than the others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the look of them but it was £350 Yeah that’s a bit much. What was it called though ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydavy Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Hi have a propprotector. Easy to fit and slide on ones quite cheap. How good is it - I hope to never have to find out!! Geoff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the serrated one you had before looked a better design. Well the blurb said it was ultra sharp and gave a constant cutting edge as opposed to a aerated edge that could be prone to damage. And believe me the thing is sharp. JonC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can take one next time I’m down there, but the whole thing was coated in grease today. Along with the shaft and prop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of those cutters were quite away from the prop hub though. My fitting instructions said around 4mm from the prop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
