Turning Point Propellers uses a sophisticated, scientific method in its designs. Variables such as rake, pitch progression, cupping, blade area and blade thickness of the blades all come into play. If a propeller is tuned correctly taking into account these variables, it will dramatically increase the overall performance.
But how can these marine propellers perform better than OEM props if they design them for their motors? How are they better than Mercury, Yamaha, Volvo, Evinrude, Honda, Suzuki, or OMC propellers - It's relatively easy. Turning Point tests the performance of all boat props and makes sure that they run better than OEM and aftermarket props. Of course a Turning Point may not run the fastest on every boat, but to say it is the fastest 9 times of 10 is fair. Turning Point designs its aluminum and stainless steel boat propellers to not only run fast, but also provide superior handling on sharp turns at high speeds. Once you get your new Turning Point prop, give it a good strong test, and you'll see and feel the difference.
Through prop testing, we've identified some of the worst performing propellers. On the aftermarket side, Michigan Wheel props have proven time and time again to be the worst props for speed, acceleration, handling and fuel economy. The worst OEM prop, sharing the same bad traits as the Michigan prop, is Yamaha aluminum props. They are so poorly designed, that we couldn't even turn the boat without it ventilating. The only way to make that prop hook up with the water again was to back off the throttle.
By far, no comparision, if you want a good running prop, Turning Point Propellers is the best option.
