Anyone had any issues with a 25 3 blade fury throwing a blade? I was running about 55 mph today in the middle of the river 12-15 ft depth and felt some vibration in the steering wheel and immediately came down off plane and felt the vibration get worse. I trimmed up the motor to see a blade missing. Noticed what looked to be a air pocket in the material. Just checking to see if anyone has had a similar issue
Nasty. Nice doorstop.
How old is the prop?
3 years old
motor has 130 hrs
I threw 2 blades on 2 separate fury’s.
How high do you run prop to pad?
No help from Mercury then.....Originally Posted by younggun
They all throw blades some more than others.
Is it a stress crack from a nick in blade?
i run fury’s and was advised when making a high speed turn to make sure to trim in some. Lots of stress is placed on blade in high speed turns
You got lucky it didnt destroy your cav plate or l/u,paperweight, just move on.
True.
