I switched a longtime ago with my sea doo to ss and never looked back. Def worth it imo. The way I look at it is if you damaged the prop with the ss it was prolly going to happen with the plastic also.

I ran ss wearring for 150 hours up till 1 year ago, salt water only.
But back to plastic now.
Observed impeller getting worn at the tips.
Creating more gap between wearring and impeller.
So I choose to buy new wearring every season over a new impeller or repair.

As mentioned before my experience and my opinion !!

X2, same reason I gave up on it , damage to the outer edge of the prop .

Read the second "sticky" at the top of this forum. It has some good info too.

thanks for all the info from actual experience with it, i was guessing that the prop would take the damage if something happen to go thru it, and would have to just repitch it, guess its stay with what works, thanks
