    Are press-in rubber hubs still obtainable?

    General Propeller in Bradenton is about $100 per prop for repair, whether its a re-hub or to weld on a missing blade (missing blade on a stainless prop is a bit more) considering a VP A, B, or C series props go for $600/pair, $500/pair, or $1500/pair respectively, spending $100/prop is cheap.
