Jim...I installed one on a Minnkota 765 bowmount. Used it for 3 seasons and hated it. I lost some performance because of the rounded edges of the metal and I think the blades were a tad smaller. Also must have been out of balance. It would wobble & vibrate. It's possible I just had a bad one.

Hey JJW and Moby Dick,

I have a metal 3 blade on my motorguide. The only problem I have is killing them and shear pins. I have wrecked 2 Machette props to date. I did however file the leading edge to almost sharp. Really chopped up the weeds.

Have fun.....R
