I have had severe problems with gori three blade folding prop. Has anyone else experienced any defects. I lost a blade for the second time after only less than ten hours on each occasion placing my guests and myself at risk.

Me too.
Pulled into Grand Caymans and one of the blades fell off. Ever look for a blade in coral? They're the same same color. We had divers volunteering to find the blade with no luck. I sent the prop back to the Gori factory requesting a repair or replacement. They said it was worn out and would sell a new one to me for twice what I paid for the first, that was four years old. I bought a Max Prop.

...the link below for H&H Prop in Salem, MA. They sell the Seahawk Slipstream stainless folder. I installed one on my Nonsuch 30 and it has performed spectacularly. I heard, and personally knew of, too many horror stories to go with a Gori. Cheers, Bob

Last year, I installed a MaxProp 3-blade on my Catalina 350. It started out as a 3-blade prop... and it is still a 3-blade prop! That sucks about your Gori. Jack "Friendship" C350, #80
