Signature Series vs. Cypress Series

[duckluv26]

what is the main difference in these prop styles? i have a 200 Lyc. swinging a 68 x 34 paddle prop @ 2800 rpms. which one would be best to put on an 8' wide hull. my boat now is only 6' wide. hopefully somebody has already tested these on a similar rig. appreciate any info.........

The sgnature series was primarily designed for 6 cylinder aircraft motors, 230hp and up. The smallest they run is 70". The cypress was designed for the 4 cylinder aircraft. You can get them 66", 68", or 70". A friend of mine was running a 70" signature on his 180hp lycoming and was not really happy with the performance of it and when they came out with the cypress series Powershift swapped out his signature for a 68" cypress and gave him the difference in money back due to the cypress being $200 less. After running the cypress he is in love with it and about 6 of my freinds now run them on their 4 cylinders as well.

that sounds like good info. too often i find myself trying to spend MORE money on STRONGER stuff when i should keep it simple.
