Hey Folks,
I wanted to know if anyone had some suggestions for covering the props on the back of my boat. They are four blade clevers and are extremely sharp.
The swim platform is made out of aluminum and you must swim between the motors to board. I wont have any problem but I have a five year old who might kick the prop accidently. They are three kinds of sharp and probably would involve stiches, if kicked.
I wondered if anyone had a example of what they are using and where to buy them. Phone and link are apreciated.
My wife is worried about the little man and I want to ease her mind and make sure that swimming /boating remains safe and fun.
i apreciate any and all input or suggestions.
Finally got the boat home, Now its time to start tinkering and bumping it up.
Thanks ,

Why don't you do yourself the favor and move to a non-cleaver prop. You probably don't have the balls to drive that boats at the limits to warrant cleavers. Rumour has it your old boat is doing quite nicely under the skilled hands of the new owner. 98 mph for the Red Barron and absolutely rock steady. Hasn't scared anyone but you.
I won a couple nylon/foam padded prop covers at a poker run last year. I use them for trailering, but I bet you could slip them on while in the water, too.

IOM, I've started my fair share of crap but you take the cake. Rumor has it that any fu(ktard with nothing more than a 454 in a 25ft boat probably shouldn't be running at the mouth about goin fast. Your post was uncalled for and showed your lack of class. If Clearfork had called you out for no reason I'd have jumped his sh*t just as fast.

I was wondering when someone would respond to that...

...at least we know whose nuts you're swinging from.

wow, dog a person because they admit they don't need a super fast ride.... but you would be the first to bash a person who would keep one and be dangerous.... I would rather boat with 200 cautious boaters that do not have boats going over 80MPH then 30 boat fly past 80!!! and cruising off shore boats on a lake.... I drove large boats before.... in the ocean miles and miles from shore..... that is where they are fun.... not on a lake... but to each his own....
I havent found anything yet, most of what i have found either looks cheap or is cheap. I am going to try my local canvas shop and see what they think.
I apreciate all of the constructive criticism.
I really dont have to defend my position or driving skills, walk a mile in my shoes and then we will talk.
Cheap shots from cheerleaders who have never met me. Relax and think before you type. Try to be a gentleman, I think we are all out if the 7th grade by now.
I agree with you on one part though, that is the nicest boat I ever owned, I put alot of my own blood sweat and tears in it. I hope that Mitch is still enjoying it. It is a beautiful boat. I tried with the help of alot of people to make that the best boat I could, I didnt work out for me and I have no hard feelings. and most importantly no ill will. I simply have moved on, no big deal.
I will say though..
I have looked at a whole lot of different manufacturers lately before my new boat purchase. It really makes me respect the guys in Valencia, and Newbury Park, the construction of the Howard was way above par. way way above par. They set the bar pretty high.
My new boat is also a 90 mph boat. I exspect here in a couple of weeks to have it in the mid to high 90's. I have had no problems driving this boat and I am enjoying it alot so far. Most importantly my wife likes the boat...
Now if I could only find some quality thick prop covers.......
Thanks i apreciate any and all help

RIOPUKE - I've driven boats to 105. NHRA Modified Production cars to 179. No planes - yet. I can say from the sh!t that a$$hole clearfock gave TPI over the extraoridary efforts that were given to produce good service he deserves every shot he will get.
