does anyone know a place in the san jose area that demos props? or has a really good selection?

Isaac, is it for your Bayliner XT? <BR> <BR>You might need to find a place close to the water like Larson's in Stockton, but I would not recommend them.

Ya, it is.. Whats wrong with Larsons? <BR> <BR>BTW, how do you like your demented?

Isaac, <BR> Kevins prop shop in Antioch has been good to me and they have an excellent reputation. He also does tune-ups and other small jobs like steering cables ect.

I second Kevin's Prop shop. He has done pretty much all the work on both my boats I've owned.

Demented is a good board with lots of surface area on the front/back for popping off the wake. Unfortunately after back surgery 3 months ago I am back on my old predictable forgiving Belmont.

Hmmm, I suspect Mike mixed up his windows here, but what the heck. Mike, I am surprised that you are doing any wakeboarding at all three months after back surgery! <BR> <BR>A few years ago my son dislocated his shoulder while wakeboarding. It was in June, and we had just bought a new SAN in March so he was determined to keep riding. For the next couple of months he strapped his bad arm down and rode one handed! <BR> <BR>Now, back to the program: <BR>Isaac: I haven't paid close attention because I don't own an I/O but I know that Boat Masters II in Pleasanton and Larsons in Stockton have demo props for I/O. Boat Masters is a Mercury dealer so I would assume their props are for Mercruisers. I don't recall what I/O brand Larsons would be. <BR> <BR>I would recommend doing a repair/dealer search for your outdrive and calling all the shops around.
