Hello,
I'm a long time boater but new here so please be gentle.
I just purchased a '10 Regal 3350 with DPS-A drives. When I inspected the boat initially, I noticed both forward props had damage... Not a big deal and they were definitely repairable (and were fixed). But looking at the props they just feel thin...and delicate. I'm a long time Merc Bravo3 guy and those props feel much heavier and more substantial. I believe the Regal props are factory VP but I don't know for certain. For people that have run both the Volvo and Mercury packages, do you feel like you have more prop repair with one flavor over the other? I'm feeling like I might want to get a fast pass card with the local prop shop.
I know it's subjective but would appreciate any thoughts.
Thanks!
Kevin
