I only know of one guy who had one, he said it worked for him.
I was tempted to buy one but never did. I think they can be more helpful when boats are heavy and underpowered. That way you can get out of the hole and or pull tubes but still have a reasonable top speed. Most likely they will never be the most efficient top speed prop but better then a really low pitch one needed for tubing.
It's on the boat so try it, do you have a spare prop? If so you can compare them to each other next summer.
BTW congratulations on the purchase.

I have 2 spare props that i can compare but from what you are saying was exactly how i thought its going to perform so since its on there ill give it a try but i couldn't believe the price when i looked it up. It does have an adjustment on it for tuning. Thanks!

If it is anything like the old Land & Sea ones, they are a PITA to get tuned in but worked well once that happens. There were a lot of adjustments. I messed with one on a 18' Stingray once a friend had. We ended up canning it and just propping it normally. I would hate to hit a rock with a prop like that and bend more than just a blade.
