I want to replace the prop on my '92-25hp-2 stroke which is on a lightweight 14' Starcraft. I plan to stay with 10-1/8 x 13. Iboats has two props I'm considering, an aluminum Michigan Wheel Vortex and a stainless Michigan Wheel Ballistic, which costs nearly 3 times as much. This boat is used in fresh water. What are the advantages of the stainless prop other than corrosion and strength issues?

None.... Also the stainless makes it a little harder on the shift dog.

Thanks. Since my boat's so light, I went with an aluminum 14" pitch.
