Re: Gori 3 blade folding prop vibration

Re: Gori 3 blade folding prop vibration

Thanks, I had considered this and the next time out of the water I plan to try the swap. Just wasn't sure if there was a procedure to balance the props (both look perfect with no visible damage)...

Any other Seawind owners upgrade their light bulbs to LED? Looking at making the change but with so many options of which to buy it is hard to make a decision.
