The moment you hit the throttle, you’ll feel the surge of power as it digs in and gets you on plane faster than you’d expect from an aluminum prop. The four-blade design adds balance and grip, giving you a smoother, more predictable feel whether you’re carving turns, towing, or running wide open.

Its high-rake, cupped blades bite deeper into the water, keeping your boat steady and planted even when conditions get choppy. You’ll notice improved control during acceleration and tighter response when trimming — that extra confidence you get when the prop stays hooked up no matter what you throw at it.

Despite its aggressive performance, maintenance is refreshingly simple. The durable aluminum build and Phantom Black finish make it resistant to corrosion and easy to clean after a long day on the water. Just rinse, inspect, and you’re ready for the next adventure.
