Variable Pitch Propellors

[Noddy]

I have the opportunity to buy a "Propulse Variable Pitch Propellor" for my Mercury 60hp outboard. It is priced at around £85 which is considerably less than an aluminium one. Does anyone know anything about them?

'JW' on this forum (jwalker on RIB.net) has such a gadget, and reckons they're great, shoot him a PM and get some private opinions on it!

Never tried one myself.

Na, Jon. Mine's a Torqushift. The Propulse ones are plastic with adjustable blades....I think.

Hey this baby realy works. Used it all weekend on my
Rib and it just zoomed along. Better top speed and seems to be a lot more economical on fuel-time will tell?
