We had 2 shops on the south end of Lanier, but I think they are both gone now. I sent mine to Delta(site sponsor) and was very happy with their work and 1 week turn around.

If you do want to take a look at another prop, Some help is needed without having to go back through your previous posts in hopes of finding some information. I know we have plenty of people that have first hand experience. Tim (TRBenj), although he's just a hobbyist has done the studies on different props.

Boat and engine?
Existing prop dia. and pitch?
WOT (wide open throttle) RPM's?
Intended usage?

I have actually only driven my boat one time and have no clue.
boat is a 1984 SN 2001 with 351W engine.
existing prop? will post pic next week, boat is at lake now.
WOT ? according to the one working speedo, I went 35-38.
usage will be towing kids on tube and riding on the lake. My oldest is 8 so she will have to learn to ski.
