SS props do have less flex, but the bigger downside depending on where you fish, is if (when) you hit schit there is a greater chance of doing damage to the lower end whereas an aluminum prop bend and give quite a bit more. 3 blade for top end/ 4 blade for better acceleration. G]
Correct on the damage issue and 3 vs 4 blade. I'll add a 5 blade stainless prop will pull an elephant up on a water ski
