The four-bladed Comprop's low price and excellent performance make it a worthy contender, but the Piranha three-blade allows you to change blades and pitch.
When it comes to performance, composite propellers can certainly hold their own when pitted against their stainless-steel and aluminum counterparts, we learned this lesson well in our last propeller comparison (July 2000). For example, the two plastic props tested (a three- and a four-blade fr...

Can a plastic DuoProp perform as well as a stainless version costing twice as much? Get ready to save some bucks
Jim Barron
When it comes to saltwater corrosion, you may be able to slow it down, but it is hard to stop. And this has been one of the major deterrents to the use of sterndrives in ocean waters, particularly among boaters who keep their craft in the water.
The primary cause of corrosion on sterndri...

Randy Viessman from Granite City, IL says:
I believe I have been using my Piranha Prop since 2001. I wouldn‘t use anything else. I fish and don‘t want a damaged prop ruining my day. I carry extra blades in the boat and I can change them on the water. I have a Carolina Skiff with a 90hp Merc. I use a 21 pitch, 3 blade. It will run 42 mph top speed. I drive it 32 mph most of the time. One friend of mine broke his lower unit with a stainless on a new 125 hp Merc and it cost him over $3000.00. I ordered him a 4 blade, 22 pitch Piranha. He is very happy.

Experienced boaters rely on Piranha
for boat propellers that beat competitors' props.
How do our boat propellers work?
Our
propellers feature a functional, modular design - which allows you
to change damaged blades individually, as you need.
The key to the patented Piranha Propeller is the hub. The
center hub consists of a high-strength aluminum core, molded over with
our specially-formulated composite material, Verton.
The hub is designed to take the shock of the propeller's impact, which
means you no longer experience spun hubs. We are confident in our
virtually indestructible hubs, which is why we back them with a
lifetime warranty. Our replaceable
blades are made from the same high-strength composite, perfectly
balanced, and precisely pitched - giving you a blade 15% stronger than
die-cast aluminum.
We recognize the high cost of replacing and repairing your lower unit,
which is why Piranha engineers designed the hub, blades, and materials
to absorb impact energy - protecting your prop shaft and gears.
