I just got some angle tips this past weekend off of ebay for a very good price with the flaps inside, but I would like some opinions what looks better... the rubber tips look or the angle cut...

I actually got some mixed opinions from my neighbors...

Ayuh,... So long as they're equipped with shutters, I'll go with the angle cut tips...

They do have the flaps inside for water reversion...

Angle tips look better, but I like watching the flappers too, go figure.

If you don't have a prop, or for an inboard, I'd vote for flappers and big quiet mufflers:cool:
