    Mark has always been a straight shooter. Even when I was interested in buying one of his props he told me that the one I had was the best prop for my boat/motor.

    I'll vote for Mark as well.. he recently did my T1-25P B&B and looks awesome. He's done one of my props in the past too and he's excellent! quick turn around as well.
    Current: 2006 ~ 20i ~ 250 HPDI ~ T1-25p

    WELL I have used mark a bunch of times , and to be fair he has always had to repair or fix props that have hit stumps, sandbars ,ramps , alligator and such. they always looked like brand new again when I get them back ... but to tell you the truth they always seem to be 1 to 2 mph slower than what they ran when they were new out of the box.. but I'm happy because most of them I fought would never work again. I have thought I would send him a new one out of the box one day to see if it would go faster or not ...lol but if you have a prop that's all most a door stop or even cracked blade marks the man.

    My experience, if you get back to him with feedback on how its running he will continue to tweak it...he will work with you. I sent him a 26 temp+ out of the box. ...ran 74.5 before, ran 77.1 after.
