Propellers for AirBoats
American
Airboat Corporation - Prop Options
Most composite prop suppliers manufacture adjustable pitch blades. These durable composite props can be pitch adjusted at the hub to match a wide variety of power plants. The matching is within 40 h.p. There is no way for a small engine to turn a 3 blade or 4 blade prop.
Composite props cost more than wood but they can give you smoother-quieter operation, better cruise, more fuel efficient performance, and higher thrust at lower RPMs. Carbon fiber is more durable and lighter than wood.
