Anyone try this out ? I like the hub idea.

Yes just got one the other day....it's going back. The hub is a great idea except you wont be able to run the prop loose or floating. Go Devil says to run it loose and thats what I have not sure about other long tails. The adaptor hub or long brass hex nut which is what is, is the same size as the nut closest to the seal pack on a GD. It seems that running it loose with brass threads and the chance it could slide on to the nut and possibly into the seal pack. The other thing is the prop is very thin, so even with the claimed Rockwell 60 surface hardness there is not much material. I ran the prop for about 5 minutes yesterday and for a 9x6 it is slower than any other I have had. Another thing I would note is I ordered the "coated" prop and was sent the non coated. After I called and talked with Brad I was told thier web site was wrong at that the coated prop was $219 and not the $149 as stated on the website so that is why I received the non coated prop. I will admit the prop did come back off with little effort but I have never had a problem getting the standard screw on style off either. Thats my 2 cents here is a few pics of it if anyone would like to see...

Thank you for that info. Going back to my Hopkins 10x6

i think you just saved a lot of people some headaches....

Dude that looks like a propeller that should be on a minn-kota or something.. I'm sorry for your loss of $150, I hope you find a good prop soon.

I ran the 9X7 on my 23 GDLT with no issues. It did outlast the factory prop, but on the same note, so did the prop I bought from StumpJumper aka Bill's Engineering.
