CDI Performance Props

Anyone use CDI's Performance Props. Show made of urethane. Wondering how they hold up and if performance is good as claimed. Looking at the 2 bladed fixed for our Islander 32. Any info appreciated

I was wondering the same. A whole lot cheaper than a Maxprop.

I don't get it. Why compare a fixed-blade prop with a feathering prop? Apples and oranges.

yes - but $350-$400 compared to $1800+ Right now the $400 sounds good for awhile.

$1800 is more than 10% of what I paid for the boat. I don't mind spending cash. I just like to spend it properly. My original prop is a 12" 2 bladed that could use another inch of pitch. The CDI will get me that.
