Prop Shop Recommendation

[BobV1]

Does anyone know of a good prop shop in the LBI area? I need to have some welding done on a SS prop.

I just pulled mine last Saturday, I got them back On Thursday Class II finished and only $202. each. I had a messed up cup from getting in to shallow and backing out.
Find a shop that is digital. Or not in the stone age.

if you have twins send them both so they can match them. also, if you want a print out, ask in advance for the before (they don't print before unless asked on the ss props). i just had mine tuned (no repairs) hummed along nicely last season. good luck, ron

Wildcat Propellers in Chesapeake, VA. They have a shipping program. They will match and balance via propscan.

I have been quite satisfied with Tuckerton Props right across the Bay from you. The Canyon Club marina in Cape May sends their work there also.

I cannot say the same for Ocean Props in Toms River.

I think Alantic is a "propscan" shop.

Atlantis is a PropScan shop as is Wildcat. I had mine down by Alantis several years ago and I highly recommend them. In fact, after seeing the diference between old school hand tuning and computer tuning I wouldn't have my props touched by an shop that doesn't use computer analysis and tuning.

Call Atlantis and make an appointment. Then you can walk in with your prps and they'll put them on the machine for analysis while you wait. Withing 30 minutes you'll have a printed report of what the props look like and a plan to tune them. You will need to supply them with boat specs (boat make, model, engine and trans specs, current RPMs at WOT, do you want more economy or speed, etc). The more info you can provide the better they can tune them for you.

Thanks for the responses. Looks like I'll contact Atlantis and Tuckerton.

We used a place near Cape May. It is a propscan place in the basement of his house. Great work and good turn around. It was Eastern Prop in Seaville NJ.
