Just my 2 cents - but you will notice a HUGE difference with a properly chosen SS prop, especially a Hi-5. Hi-5 you have poor reverse, but the handling with make you happy. Good luck!

I have never ran the boat without the High 5 prop. It had a three blade on it when I bought it (used) and the brand new high 5 still in the box. I switched props before I ever took the boat on the water. I love the prop!
On to the stabilizer, it was easy to install and completely took care of the porpoising problem. Boat stays on plane at lower speed and gained three mph on top end. Overall happy with the plate.
