    27 Tempest

    I made the mistake of not trimming up when loading yesterday and did a decent little grind on the prop. I'm not sure if it's fixable? I didn't take a picture of it.

    My other question is, how does the Tempest Plus compare to the old Tempest which apparently isn't made anymore?

    I was going to get another prop anyway, but this is forcing me to do it a bit sooner than expected.

    I would send a picture to Mark and see what he says about repairing it.

    I just completed a work order for him and am waiting for the call to see if he can repair. Just spoke with Don Weed at European Marine and he recommended a 26 Tempest Plus. I wanted a back up prop anyway, and now I guess I forced myself into it. Ugh.

    Unless you broke a blade off Mark should be able to fix it. He's got pictures of some he worked on and they were pretty bad but looked like new when he was finished with them.
