Just hauled my 460 this past weekend for a little spring maintenance and looked at the prop. It's starting to RUST! Anyone know where these things came from? What are they made of?

How Can That Be??

Mark - I have always assumed that the prop was bronze and shouldn't be rusting. I haven't looked at ours out of the water yet but will now be anxious to do so. I recall with our 40.5 that it showed a slight pitting after 3 years, but no rust. I polished it up but then changed it for a Max-prop so I can't say what the final outcome is. I'm thinking about a Max-prop for this boat too. Then davits for the dinghy and it should go even faster, right? ROwen
