I agree. One of our Braidbar owners who is ex-RN points out that his
former employer spends a very substantial amount of money on R&D in
prop design, and nothing they have ever come up with looks like the
Axiom. In fact the only existing commercial application of the square
bladed prop that I'm aware of can be seen on the back of the Great
Eastern...
All the best
