Piranha Composite Propellers

[SeaAce]

Can anyone tell me if Piranha Propellers are still in existence? If so, who in the UK sells them?
Has anyone any experience of them?
I am considering trying one on my 18 foot Fletcher GTB (190 BMW outdrive).

TIA

John

I had one of those many moons ago, they are still sold, the only stokist i know of is Chas Newans Marine in putney. Not sure if the BMW outdrive is listed tho. They got a website at www.chastheboat.co.uk Hope this helps

The theory that lies behind the Piranha is great, the practise, not so, I'm afraid. A friend of mine and I have used one extensively and he is now stuck with it... literally. Unless they are greased every five minutes, they stick to the splines.

Performance wise, I don't rate them either. Better off with metal, just keep clear of sand banks and rocks.

Cheers.

By your responses and the lack of others I think I'll take your advice and stick with metal.

Thanks
