My props look fine. I have beeen contenplaiting wether or not to have them reconditioned. If i feel the the props I can feel a little nick here andt their but cant really see them. I don't know if it is worth it. And if I don't need to spend the money I just assume to hold off this year however if it will make a noticable performance difference I would get it done or if I am risking any danger to my drive I would get it done. My suurveyer mentioned I might want to do it ofer the winter has he noticed a slight vibration at ideal speed. My dealer on the other hand looked at the prop and said he didn't think I needed to spend the money on it this year. I am already speending $4100 on boat work (manifolds,u-joints, gimbal bearing, impeller, bottom paint, bellows, electronics installed ect...)and am well above my buget but I am a preventitive mantnace type of guy and would spend the money if needed but would like to save if I can hold off.
