The Prop that put the "four" in Perfourmance! Turning Point's Four Blade
Hustler revolutionized the aluminum propeller market when introduced over 6
years ago. No one had ever produced an aluminum propeller with two different
blade shapes (they call it Dual Geometry) for 90-300+hp applications.
This prop is uniquely engineered with two blade geometries: (diagram label 2)two blades utilize the Hustler
high performance variable rake and aggressive pitch design for incredible hole shot
and cornering, and (diagram label 1) two blades utilize an offshore style design for high speed and
maximum stern lift.
These props re-wrote the rules, proving that you can run a four blade that has unprecedented
hole shot, handling, and rough water stability without the top-end speed loss
you experience with other manufacturers’ propellers.
The Hustler 4 blade series is perfect for any application that demands
enhanced acceleration, cornering, and load carrying capabilities. This prop
series is ideally suited for watersports, sterndrive boats, tri-toons, bay boats,
and any vessel that can use stern lift. It is our best upgrade of older aluminum
designs from the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and ’00’s, and will outrun most newer props,
including five blade ski props.

Hustler revolutionized the aluminum propeller market when introduced over 6
years ago. No one had ever produced a state-of-the-art Swept Cleaver design for 40-150hp applications. These props
re-wrote the rules, proving that you can run a four blade that has unprecedented
hole shot, handling, and rough water stability without the top-end speed loss
you experience with other manufacturers’ propellers. These Turning Point props also
produced up to 46% more reverse thrust than other comparable designs in recent tests.

Turning Point has built their reputation on a relentless focus on engineering the
best performing aluminum propellers in the World. Utilizing state-of-the-art
Squeeze Casting technology, they produce Hustler 3 Blade Propellers that run as
fast as their competitors' Stainless Steel Props, and even sometimes faster! Super
stiff metallurgy, unique blade geometry, aggressive pitch, rake, and cup all give
you the best they can offer: Stainless Performance at Aluminum Prices! Not only does top speed, handling and
hole shot improve, but also mid-range performance, which will save you a ton in gas usage. If
you want the most your boat and engine combination can offer, then the Hustler
3 Blade delivers.
The Three Blade Hustler is great for boaters looking to get the most top end out of
their boat, and offer excellent bow lifting capabilities. Four blade props accelerate
faster, exhibit stern lift, handle rough or following seas better, and maintain speed
better as you load the boat down with gear or people. Three blade props run
better on pontoons, while four blades and three blades both run well on tri-toons
(recent testing has shown that pontoons and tri-toons run better with larger blade
diameters than runabout or bass boat hulls).

The Three Blade Hustler is great for boaters looking to get the most top end out of
their boat, and offer excellent bow lifting capabilities. These props are perfectly matched to mid-range horsepower pontoons,
fishing, ribs, and tiller boats. It will fit all 6-75hp outboards
with 2.5", 3", and 3.5" gearcases from all engine manufacturers.
Stainless steel performance is built into the Hustler Aluminum prop line.
This is achieved through unique blade geometry and an exclusive Turning
Point manufacturing process, Squeeze Casting. This process generates the highest
mechanical properties attainable in a cast aluminum prop resulting from high density tighter grain structure. Stiffer blades means less flex and a faster prop.
Competitors' Aluminum propellers are manufactured utilizing old Die-Cast process that produces props with air bubble, voids, and granularity. Weak, lack of strength and stiffness. Difficult to repair.
Blades Flex under load, inefficient, loss of propulsive efficiency.
Exclusive to Turning Point, the Ultracoat powder coat rivals a fine
automotive finish, and is more durable than paint. Utilizing a state-of-the-art
five step process, Ultracoat gives the propeller a shiny,
uniform appearance that enhances any boat's good looks. This is the
Gold Standard in Aluminum Corrosion Protection. Prop looks Newer Longer!
Compared to Competitors' 4 step Paint and Coating Processes that result
in much less abrasion and corrosion resistance.

Turning Point's Ultracoat had minimal wear. | Competitive Paint had 600% more wear. |
Turning Point's Propeller Housings have massive Exhaust flow pathways. Their Propellers have 40% more exhaust flow Area versus competive product. More exhaust flow and less backpressure can generate more horsepower. Like headers for your boat.
Turning Point's Exhaust Ports 40% Larger | Competitor's Exhaust Ports (Restrictive) |
Hustler Aluminum Propellers have vented
barrels for hole shot/low end acceleration.
Turning Point is still the only manufacture
to offer this race proven technique in their aluminum line of propellers. Wake-Boarders and water skiers get out of water faster.
(select models only 13" and 14" diameter 15+ Pitch).
Recent tests reveal that new Hustler Aluminum Propellers have up to
46% more reverse thrust over competitive propeller designs.
