Here are a couple of pics of a Sturgeon type propeller that I frankensteined from two different models I had. I'm pretty pleased with the end result. I'm thinking this will go on the Permit, Sturgeon, and 688 for sure. Skipjack I'm not sure about yet, they were made with the 5 bladed model originally but were eventually replaced with the quieter 7 bladed model here.
