Propeller Clean Up/Repair - Where to Send?

**97mirage** · 03-26-2017, 07:48 PM

I have a 26 Yamaha that got dinged on a rock a few years back...not too badly but needs some cleanup.

Who do you guys send HP props to for blade repair? Thanks for any and all replies.

bullet20vee: Who is Mark Croxton? I've never heard this name before. Can you provide contact information? Does he work for a company or is he a one-man show?

Any other alternatives?

Murphy's Propeller Shop. It's funny I just send my props to them today and I haven't been on SnF in forever. They do great work and not very expensive. They are located in Norfolk, Virginia 757 853 4731. I live in NJ and the local guys grind the crap out of your prop and don't polish them again. They take out too much cup, basically ruin your prop.

I would send it to someone with a lot of experience with Yamaha drags, like Junker,Tillman,Gilbert, Steve's props etc.

from what I know Croxton is primarily a bass boat prop guy, he does excellent work but I personally would not send him one of my good drags. I would not think twice about sending him one of my bass boat props however.

Kinda of like how you wouldn't take a mustang to a civic shop or a civic to a mustang shop. Take it to someone who does the exact thing you are using.

that's just my opinion ymmv

These are also both great options as well, I have props from both of them too.
