"I've personally tried a 4 Blade Piranha Propeller, my nephew runs a 4 blade 22p on his 5.0L GM/Volvo Penta 20' 2008 Glastron 205GT. Lifetime warranty on the hub and the blades are from 13-20$ each. Super easy to change blades for the day or if you damage one, I damaged 2 blades one day, had minor vibration and no damage to the drive. no spares at the time either."
