Flying Propellers



Here it is.

It looks very strokeable and shiny.

I like shiny things ...

Have you tried one? They look more prone to snagging debris than the usual curved props? I am curious.

No I haven't tried one. Having read the tried and tested in Waterways World I imagine that as the boat will not sit as deep as a normal prop would make it possibly we would not pick up as much debris anyway. Only time will tell.

I want good pushing power against river flows for when we go abroad and this is the kiddy apparently.

Derwent 6 have one fitted perhaps they are the ones to ask as they have been out and about for a while now.

Don't worry. 'shiny kit syndrome' is a well known affliction - tho' it's more usual in middle aged men. I suffer from it myself - I recently bought £70 worth of titanium in the form of a single large nut. (!)
