Re: prop ?

Depends on what performance criteria you are looking for and what boat and drive system they are installed on. It would help if we knew what specific prop models you are talking about. Prop designs take a large number of variables into account. Blade shape is just one of them. Blade shape is not just one design feature either -- cupping, rake, diameter, progressive pitch are all worked into the design.
