Could it be? Yup, it is...a "new kind of Prop"

I think it’s bullshit.. but I got an email saying they are going in production now..

Still won’t work as well as a surfacing prop

Are you going to test it and do a write up?

The problem with their test video is the Sharrow prop is basically equivalent to a 4-6 blade prop and they are comparing it to 3 blade units. It would have been more interesting to see a good four blade compared to the Sharrow instead of a 3 blade. The 3 blade props were weak in all the performance areas you would anticipate as compared to a 4 or 5 blade unit. They also didn't discuss slip. Lots of details missing in spite of what appeared to be lots of data presented.

I will bet strong money the cost of the prop will not pay for itself in the long run.
