      Or you could just check one with a magnet.

        Ah, but only if you know it's 400. So is the 300 more corrosion resistant and the 400 stronger?

          Actually SS is not that strong and galls fairly easily. It is great in certain environments but it's weaknesses must be understood.

The next time we get together we can all try it out and I will bring a laptop as well.
            No problem, I figured I'd offer. I didn't know if it was one that was specially modified or was the "perfect" prop for something. I feel like that CMDI x642 that I lost was the one for the Viper. I still have hopes to pickup the driveline that broke with the prop still attached.

            Not sure how that will go But I have to try!

              Very interesting! I know I use a magnet in my shop to 'sweep' the floor for bolts, nuts, screws I seem to continually drop on the floor. The stainless steel ones never seem to stick to the magnet!

                  I decided to test this for myself. Here are the results in a video.

                      Haaar! At least for that stainless formulation! Shows the prather's have a lot of iron in them.

                          Thanks for the video Egneg. She was a BLAST to run today, Very Fast. I can't wait for flat water to open her up fully.
