Propellers

LONGTAIL ENGINE PROPELLERS

The Original Shallow Water Super Weedless Prop! The GO-DEVIL Propeller is the most refined propeller on the market. With over 40 years of testing in harsh conditions, our props are designed to get you out of those sticky situations. Through the years, many companies have tried to build knock-offs of the GO-DEVIL propeller. None have proven to be as efficient, durable, and powerful as the GO-DEVIL propellers…Period.  We’ve tested these so called “copies” to see how they compare with our own. In our testing, we have seen GPS speeds on average of one to two mph less than the GO-DEVIL   propellers along with extremely poor performance in rough terrain and mud. Our props, to say the least, have been copied by many and perfected by none! Along with unmatched performance, No other propeller in the industry is backed by a warranty of its kind. Read below to find out more about our prop warranties.

The secret to our props are in the years of testing and research that no other company has done. GO-DEVIL Props are field tested on each of our models in every environment imaginable. Our props are put to the test, then modified through an interactive procedure until a finite maximum for performance in all applications is reached. After rigorous testing is complete, a prototype is custom made by hand, scanned, and finessed on the computer to the tightest tolerances for the final product.

GO-DEVIL recommends that large and heavy boats should drop one inch of pitch. Altitudes above 3000 ft should drop at least one inch of pitch to accommodate for horsepower loss. GO-DEVIL will change pitch or re-cup propellers for a $20 charge at any time.

SURFACE DRIVE PROPELLERS

The GO-DEVIL Surface Drive propeller was specially designed for Surface Drive engines. We tested propellers extensively during our long research and development period. With over 100 changes to the design during this period, we produced the most refined propeller for the surface drive engines. The surface drive propeller is extra heavy built, full weedless, and designed with a high performance cup to power through the nastiest, thickest mud for a wide spectrum of boats and loads. A computer designed and machined mold allows for highly consistent propellers so that our customers obtain the maximum performance matched to these engines. All of our Surface Drive engines run a 11″ x12” 3-blade propeller capable of producing the maximum thrust. Some of our older 18hp-23hp Surface Drives run a 11″x11″ 2-blade prop. These older Surface Drives can be retro-fitted to run the new 11″x12″ 3-blade prop. Smaller diameter propellers for the surface drive engines were rigorously tested; however, they were outperformed by the larger diameters. Our surface drive propellers are made of a high grade stainless steel and are purposefully thick to ensure longevity because propeller wear on surface drives engines create a significant reduction in performance as compared to factory propellers.

PROPELLER WARRANTY

The GO-DEVIL propeller is warranted against breakage within two years of the purchase date of the GO-DEVIL engine with the following conditions: The prop is only warranted against a prop breaking and not prop wear.

Example: A 9″ propeller that cost $225.00 is broken and has worn down to 8 1/2 ” diameter, the customer will pay $112.50 (50%) for a replacement under warranty. Replacement propellers carry a one year warranty. GO-DEVIL propellers that have been rebuilt carry no warranty. GO-DEVIL propellers used in rocks are not warranted unless a rock guard has been installed.

ALL PROPELLERS WILL BE BILLED IN FULL UPON SHIPMENT AND A CREDIT ISSUED AFTER INSPECTING RETURNED BROKEN PROP!
