Prop Swap 'Cruise' - April 23rd

Hi all....

This thread is the outcome of my earlier Prop Conundrum thread, (now moved to 'engines') to have a prop swapping meet!

So, Richard B, Andre, Ageing Youth and I are now planning a Prop Swap Meet, somewhere in the Solent area on Saturday 23rd April... (depends on the weather but perhaps Lymington or the Itchen or Hamble) Details next week!

The idea is to exchange props on compatible engines and see how they perform. We will post the results on Ribnet.


All welcome

On offer from me...

A 23" ali prop for Alpha One...


I would like to try

1) a 21" ali

2) a 21" steel vengeance

3) a 21" steel Laser

4) a 19" steel Titan

5) Anything else that fits my alpha One leg...

The more people we have, the more choices of props to borrow.... All at our own risk of course! Hold on to your nuts!

Who else can come?

Rogue,

Will these definitely fit on my Alpha One leg?

Still be grateful if you could bring yours, Andre!
