True High Performance Aluminum and Stainless Steel Boat Props
from
Turning Point. But what makes a boat propeller High
Performance? The secret is in the blade design.
Turning Point Propellers uses a sophisticated, scientific method in its designs. Variables such as rake, pitch
progression, cupping, blade area and blade thickness of the blades all come into play. If a propeller is tuned correctly taking
into account these variables, it will dramatically increase the overall
performance.
But
how can these marine propellers perform better than OEM props if they
design them for their motors? It's relatively easy. Turning Point
tests the performance of all boat props and makes sure that they run better than OEM and aftermarket props. Of
course a Turning Point may not run the fastest on every boat, but to
say it is the fastest 9 times of 10 is fair. Turning Point designs its
aluminum and stainless steel boat propellers to not only run fast, but
also provide superior handling on sharp turns at high speeds. Once you
get your new Turning Point prop, give it a good strong test, and you'll
see and feel the difference. Read the testimonials from boaters like

LaPine, OR
Wow! It seems
like a new boat! The old prop pushed the boat through the water like it was
mud. I never could pull a skier. The new (Turning Point) prop pulled two skiers like nothing."

L. Miller.
Youngstown, OH
The hole shot seems much better
than the factory prop. Holds well in turns and is easy to install. Appears very
sturdy & well designed with bigger than factory blades. I would choose this prop over the factory prop. I will leave this prop on my boat and use the factory prop as a
spare.

Mercury 60 EFI, Hustler 14 pitch
R.
Hanson. Amery, WI
“I was very impressed with the
torque I felt with the Turning Point prop. The increase in power and smoothness
was very noticeable. Easy installation. Great in turns, a lot better than the stock prop."

“Having worked in the tool and dye industry for the past 25 years, I must say
that this prop is one of the finest quality."
SeaRay 17, Mercruiser, Hustler 17 pitch
A. Rognervo. Racine, WI
"The Turning Point Hustler prop felt solid throughout the performance test. I'd
say it
compares favorably with my stainless steel prop. I did
experience a bit of speed loss, however no speed loss with an additional
passenger. I did get to plane faster with the test (Hustler) prop."

shot. This is a very good prop."
Alumnacraft 163, Mercury 60, Hustler 14 pitch

It's a higher, drier ride."

Yamaha 115hp, Hustler 19 pitch
N. Treida. Flower Mound, TX
”The Turning Point prop put the boat on plane faster than my stainless steel prop. Top
speed/rpm was identical, but I got there faster with the Turning Point prop! I
definetely recommend this prop."

pitch propeller
D. Tomlinson. Austin, MN
“I was extremely satisfied with the performance of the prop. My standard Merc prop
will now become my backup prop. I have already told 3 boaters
of these results, they were also impressed. I also made a third run with
another person in the boat and the boat still ran 45 mph @ 5200 rpm's.

"I am a customer who you recently bought a used
Hustler Propeller 23 pitch, going to New
Jersey. Propeller, arrived on Friday and worked
beautifully. THANK YOU.
Reason, for writing you this e-mail is two -fold.
(1) The propellers work as per your companies claims and
are a real value. Customer service and support, top notch.
(2) I wish a big retailer would start carrying these
props, WEST Marine, BOAT US. Boaters World, made a big mistake by dropping your
line.
Please, feel free to pass this message onto any buyer who
may not feel that your props live up to your company claims. I have a perfect
example of the average boat most people own and the advantage of this prop,
value and performance.
Boat: 1998 Four Winns RS ( 18ft sport model)
Engine: 5.0 Volvo ( 220 H.P.)
Outdrive: Volvo SX
With standard OMC prop: 23 pitch topped out @ 49 MPH (
W.O.T.)
With Hustler Aluminum 23 pitch tops out @ 56 MPH (
W.O.T.)
The boat gets on plane faster and definitely feel the
boat pulling much harder out of the hole. I am sure this is because of the
cupped blades. Turning, on a dime. OMC, could not hold into a turn like this
prop.
I use my boat in a river, that drops into bay and
eventually leads out to the ocean where I go as far as 10 miles outside. This
is New Jersey.
Keep up the good work guys. Love your product and great
service."
K. Keist
Edmond, OK
“You might be interested to know that my time to plane is
definitely shorter with a noticeable decrease in the amount of bow rise. To top
it off I’ve seen top speeds I can’t even believe. It was 43.7 mph with and with
the Hustler it is now 48.9 mph. This is definitely a High Performance Aluminum
propeller, the likes of which I’m surprised someone has not come up with before
now.”
G. Kazunas
Dayton, OR
“After ordering and installing Turning Point’s hub and
prop on my 1995 outboard motor, I compared it to the original prop. I not only
gained 3 mph top end speed, but it was also quicker to get on plane. It is a
very good-looking unit and very easy to install. I bought a second prop to use
as a spare. Both the hub and prop cost me about $62.00
less than the original prop.”
K. Crowley
Chicago, IL
“The Express prop I bought completely outperformed my OEM
prop. My hole shot improved and the top speed was faster by about 3 mph. I
couldn’t believe how well it handled on turns.”
S. Graham
“The 23 pitch Hustler aluminum prop was outstanding in
both the hole shot and top end speed. I was amazed that a prop could perform
like it did.”
D. Banach.
“Just thought I would relate my experience with the
HU1421A propeller as you recommended for my 2000 Marada 184 DLX with 3.0
Mercruiser versus my original propeller. The biggest difference I noticed was
at cruising RPM of 3500 with the old prop boat speed was 26 mph and
with the Hustler the speed is now 31 mph.”
E. Dye
Osceola, WI
“I bought a SpeedZone prop and think it is the best money
can buy. I have been fishing in bass tournaments as a professional for over 10
years and have been running performance bass boats for at least 15 years and I
know what a prop can do. Turning Point prop’s are definitely the best
performing props I have used.”
T. Kohler
Frankfort, IL
“I run a 1850 LS Bayliner Capri
with a 3.0 Merc for power. Your Hustler 14-1/4 x 23 prop is working just great.
Even with 6 people on board, I have no problem getting out of the hole an on
plane quickly. 34 mph @ 4200 rpm with a full load. 46 mph @ 4200 with just me
and my wife on
board. Cruise settings (3000 rpm / 32 mph) are extremely
quiet and smooth. We can travel all day long on our 30 gallon tank with no fuel
worries. Much smoother, efficient, and stable from no wake to WOT than the OEM
prop. Made my OEM prop my “spare” prop. Thanks for the great
product.”
P. Winslow
Valatie, NY
“In this day and age, most organizations seem to have
forgotten about customer service. It is certainly refreshing to find someone
who cares about their customer. I just want to say that I appreciate all the
effort and I will certainly recommend you to anyone who is looking for a prop.
Thank you for your time and consideration.”
M. Baker
Winchester, KY
“I’d recommend this product because it increased speed
and improved handling and range of trim on my boat. Turning Point was very
helpful in getting the right prop for my outboard motor.” Bayliner BassTrophy
18’, Force 125hp, Hustler 17 pitch.
K. Stamm
Stockton, CA
“I would recommend Turning Point Propellers because of
their versatility and economy. Using their prop and hub system allows me to
carry various props for situations and conditions I might come across. They are
easily changeable and their reduced weight doesn’t add to my boatload. I found
that the prop they sent me out performance the OEM prop.” Tracker Deep V16,
Johnson 40hp, Hustler 17 pitch.
J. Fox
Mantus, NJ
“Found it very easy to install. Tested on the Delaware River on a little chop. Found it to be very good
on the shot & planed real fast.” Maxxum Bowrider 18’, MerCruiser3.0L,
Hustler 21 pitch.
B. Vierling
Spokane, WA
“My hole shot was slightly faster. I got 29-30 mph @ 4800rpm,
factory prop 5000rpm for this speed. I am leaving the prop on, I feel it is a
good prop.” Alumicraft 17’, Mercury 60hp, Hustler 13 pitch.
J. Maguire
Marco Island,
FL
“The propeller increased the overall speed of my boat by
an average of 6.12%. Getting up on plane was generally quicker. In shallow
water the climb out was smoother with less tendency to fall back and bottom
out.” ActionCraft Flatsmaster, Evinrude 115hp, Hustler 19 pitch.
B. Spillers
Butler, Georgia
“The Turning Point Hustler beat my stock propeller hands
down. I gained 5 mph on the top end, and my hole shot was much quicker. It held
up well. I highly recommend this product because of its durability and
lightweight. I have already suggested this product to several of my fishing buddies.”
K. Flewelling
Parkman, ME
“This is an excellent prop for all situations. I like the
idea of having a couple props in my boat and using only one hub kit. The
performance was unbeatable.” Nitro 180TF, Mercury 150hp, Hustler 23 pitch.
T. Ames
Watertown, WI
“Installed easily and ran smooth. Very fast to plane the
boat, smooth and well balanced.” Sea Star 16’, Mercury 85hp, Hustler 19 pitch.
R. Pitsley
Rogers, AR
“The Hustler gave me better speed and fuel economy than
my old stainless prop. Installation was simple. Thanks for the opportunity to
test this great prop.” Stratos Fish & Ski 17’-9”, Johnson 150hp, Hustler 21
pitch.
A. Filipek
Bloomington, MN
“I found that in waves the ride was smoother and the boat
handled better. I would recommend this propeller to all fellow club members and
it is a good value for the price.” SeaNymph 16’, Johnson 60hp, Hustler 15
pitch.
E. Krieger
Nanticoke, PA
“I like this propeller because if you hit an object while
trolling, you don’t have to buy a complete new prop.” Crestline 18’, Johnson
120hp, Hustler 19 pitch.
D. Sample
Centralia, IL
“I would recommend the Turning Point Propeller because
the MasterGuard interchangeable hub allow you to use the same hub for other
Turning Point housings of different pitch. The propeller is reasonably priced.
Making it affordable to carry a spare.” Basstracker 175, Mercury 60hp, Hustler
14 pitch.

HI,
JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU GUYS WHAT A GREAT PROP YOU MAKE.
I HAVE BEEN GOING CRAZY TRYING TO FIND A PROP THAT GETS MY 140HP JOHNSON 4
STROKE IN THE RIGHT
W.O.T. RANGE.
THE DEALER I BOUGHT THE BOAT FROM IN THE SPRING HAS YET TO GIVE ME AN ANSWER ON
THE RIGHT PROP, BUT YOUR PROP WORKED GREAT RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. THIS PROP EVEN
HOLDS TIGHT IN THE TURNS. UNBELIEVABLE. JUST ORDERED A STAINLESS TO TRY NEXT.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND GREAT PRODUCT.
THANK YOU.
