< As was suggested by the list, I contacted Jefferson and gave them my HIN.
They were able to tell me what the prop specs were when my boat was built.
26 X 24 Nibral 4-blade I am looking for a new set.  This is gonna hurt.  >

When I last bought props I went to Austal in Australia.  Half the price of
what I was quoted in the US and Fed-Ex from there for two 34" props, 4 blade
Nibral, was $300.  Aussie dollar is up, but probably still a good deal.  Very
easy to work with and the props came with full blade mapping from Prop Scan.

Great information. What kind of duty, if any, did U.S. Customs assess? I
guess the Fed-Ex tariff for relatively small, dense objects is a good one!
