Has nothing to do with the cruiser but we just got a prop from Kindsvater for my Dad's 18' Aqua Craft. Now, I have been around this sport all my life. This prop feels like nothing we have ever owned. It made the boat bark and it's smooth and puts a smile on your face everytime you drive it. I'm not endorsing the prop builder, I am simply stating that these new props and the technology has really come a long way...
