Comment:
Last summer
I bought a used prop off the internet
from a guy who said it was a Ron Hill
prop but it had been modified by
Steve's Custom Props. I was a little
hesitant as my history with Ron's
props was a hit or miss one. Since the
prop was a four blade over the hub in
a 14.5x30 which was what I needed and
only cost shipped about $275 I decided
to give it a shot.
Prop was a
satin finish what Steve called an
Eagle cut. It was thinned and very
light but consistent in every way. I
ran the thing and was amazed, good
hole shot great mid, and on my 21
Skater with a PM 300 allowed me for
the first time with this package to
break 100mph.
To top it
off it ran smooth as silk. I ran it
high and hard for about a season and
finally I cracked a blade, to be
expected from any thinned prop run very
high and hard. I did not throw a blade
which is important to mention as I
have heard many rumors of welded on
blades on Ron's props. If they are
welded you can't tell and it is a
first rate weld job as mine cracked
did not throw a blade. I went back
to Steve to try to find another Eagle
cut prop to find he no longer does the
Eagle cut but another called the
Predator in a 4-blade which is another
ET variation with more blade area and
a bit less bend than the Eagle. I
bought one and it also comes from Ron
Hill and after Steve is done it is a
work of art.
Steve
balances and blueprints them after he
does his cut then he sends them out to
be heat treated for strength. Though I
have only run the Predator once I
think I like it even better than the
Eagle cut it has more lift and carries
a load a lot better, blades are much
thicker and has a better hole shot,
equally good mid and a top end that is
only 1 mph slower than the Eagle but I
bet it will last longer than me.
Also on
both props the Flo-torque hub was a
fairly good fit in the props. His
Predator props come balanced,
blueprinted, and highly polished for
about the same as you can get a stock
satin finish Merc Pro ET 4 blade from
Jaco's which is very reasonable.
If you want
them heat treated there is an
additional charge after which they can
only come in a satin finish. Steve is
a great guy and will do about anything
to make sure the customer is happy
very much along the Eric Simon lines.
So for those of you who like Ron's
props and low price but can't live
with some of the inconsistancies give
Steve a try you won't be sorry.
