I did it. Had the factory 13.5 x 17.5 repitched to 13.5 x 16 by a very reputable shop. I hated the prop after the repitch, it developed a ton a turbulance under the boat, ran very noisy. Pulled it an replaced it with a new Acme after one weekend of use. I recommend against any significant modification of these CNC machined props. If you to fold or tear a blade, buy a new one to use as your primary, keep the old repaired prop for your backup.
