Im most impressed by the fact that bayliner has cut enough corners to sell a boat new for 20k though it probably comes with like a 50hp for that pricei didnt even think about this part today either
that test boat is bought by people financing it for a $223 payment for 20 years.
they aren't buying a $9,000 prop.

just a regular bronze prop for a boat that big already runs 10-12k *did run that much like back in 2005 probably more now lolright, it's not like an average run about and some princess yacht will take the same prop.
and if that 80' boat is getting a set of these... what's it going to run? $80k?
VR4 whatever size that is, is 25k with a 115hp merc before destination/options.

that's what i was kinda guessing at. so maybe 140k for the aluminum version?
are there 5 axis machines that can machine a 5 foot by 3 foot block?
they just add more blades to keep that over all size down but there still big ass mofo's and probably weigh around 200lbs for some of them, I think those ips volvo drives kind of cut down on the direct drive stuff i beleve those use smaller props tooVR4 whatever size that is, is 25k with a 115hp merc before destination/options.

yeah i was thinking the other day it'd be sweet for someone to be making a 20-30k closed bow 18' something with a 115 merc on it... like there are plenty of fishing boats in that price.
like bass pro sells this rig with a 150hp engine for $25k.
can i get a closed bow version with a real windshield, a rear bench, and none of the fishing shit for the same price from someone?

2019 PRO TEAM 195 TXW - TRACKER Mod V Bass Boat
The 2019 PRO TEAM 195 TXW is a fast and spacious 18' 7" bass boat that delivers the highest levels of performance, fishing area and features in an aluminum mod V boat.
57mph is nice but you can get to 60+ And have greatly decreased fuel consumption. It’s only a $9000 Base price option...
I bet you can get one of these around 30k with a 150 with just basic seats and nothing special in it it would probably still run 80+ with that power also, these are hull pops off a stv euro I believe http://www.liberatorperformanceboats.com/liberator-183-stealth.html
that's the route checkmate should have gone.
instead they are asking 65k for this 18' boat with a 115.
get ffff'd
make it a closed bow, partner up harder with merc or whoever, and off these things for 34,995 on a single axle brakeless trailer ready to run 67 mph while sipping a pbr.

It was announced today that the innovative Sharrow loop boat prop would now be cast from stainless steel, instead of from a single stainless-steel billet. First unveiled last September, and tested by BoatTEST, the props were all made one at a time by CNC 5-axis routers from solid billets of aluminum and stainless steel, costing $10,000. The stainless-steel billets – weighing nearly 500 lbs. (227.27 kg.) – cost over $2,600, according to Greg Sharrow. Sharrow is now taking $100 deposits on orders, the balance due when ready to ship, which will be in early 2021. More details in tomorrow’s BoatTEST newsletter.
