Who's the best prop man ?

[Dingie]

Who is the best prop man that can dial in the most possible performance from a rig that is close to a bass boat ?

[Fl Boy in ILL]

Dingie,

There are many, Hackney, Tillman, Gilbert, all very good, I use Bob Lipton in St Charles, Mo. He does a lot of props for racers in SLDBA and KDBA,
636-949-3121.

The key is to find somebody you trust and meets your needs. Bob has done that for me.

I use Kevin at R & R Prop Shop (http://www.randrpropshop.com) in Henderson, NV. He has an STV RR and a Hydrostream HST himself. Super nice guy and knows his stuff. 702-564-7502

There was a write up on a trophy that Rich Boger did. Trophies are great bass boat props so I would think that would be a good place to look.

As others haave said there are lots of great guys out there to do the work, I have just sent my prop to Billy @ Performance Propellers Soddy Daisey Tn. They have done several for me and always done a great job at a reasonable price with good turn around time I can get you contact info if needede. Jimmy

I would have to say Bob Lipton is hard to beat. He did a 26" Raker on my old Stratos 285 Pro and gave it incredible bow and stern lift.

He also did a 28" Raker for a friends 94 Stratos 201. Just going from a stock prop to the Lipton prop he went from 75 mph with two in the boat to 80 mph with same load.

However, if you want it pretty and shiney, not sure Lipton does that, I've never asked and both these have been satin finish.

I am told JC in Killen, AL. I just sent him one, but have not experienced one yet. From what I hear, I will be satisfied.
