Less blades is always better for speed. Where a 3 blade excels is in the hole shot, more bite less slip. The reason the 3 blade was faster here was most likely due to pitch. That said I have been thinking about getting one too.

[@JohnMcNeely]

Hate to be a killjoy. But, I've heard the use of a Kipawa will nullify your Minn Kota warranty. Besides weedless vs non-weedless, prop design also takes into account the load on the electric trolling motor. As it is, trolling motors were not designed as primary propupulsion or to run a long time. They overheat. Also, they are not meant for speed. They're designed for torque, similar concept to a farm tractor. Also, they don't run at the RPMs or with the required prop pitch to get to speed. Where extra torque would be useful is if the wind should come up. I wish you would test some of these ducted thruster trolling motors. I can send you a link but would rather not post it here on this thread. They are of an open design where you can replace the thruster motor with whatever you want, the casing for the motor is a standard size, The speed control (potentiamoter) and the Electronic Motor Controller are all exposed outside the motor. Please provide me with a way to send you that link. They make some that are very powerful: 3500RPM, 3300W 160a at 24v or a 48v version at 2600W and only 55amps all for less than $500 (shipping extra).

Liked the actual video and the information. But with the music it was hard to listen too.

[@1OFGODSOWN]

Speed is far less important than weedlessness. I live in Florida and we have plenty of weeds and grass.

[@mjprebish]

Have had the Kip on my 40lb thrust for 7 years until it fell off? Put the stock blade back on and noticed a big difference in lack of speed and almost no power at all in reverse with the stock 2 blade. I don't run the motor in the weeds but otherwise highly recommend the Kipawa for maneuverability over the stock 2 blade!

[@brianfranks3123]

If you have more blade surface area, then it will push the boat easier. If the rpm are the same, then the problem with more blade to water contact will go faster. Simple science. Most people tend to run their props are the wrong speed when moving, which is a bigger factor in battery life. If you run at 70% instead of 100%, then you might get better than 30% more battery life, bc of the amperage and run time.

[@DavidJ-kc4cz]

I have a MK 30c2 on a 15 ft canoe. Ran some tests. At full speed the factory blade ran at 4.1mph. Kipawa 3 blade ran at 3.8. Rpms were noticeably less with the 3 blade.

[@brook280]

for elect motors blades do not matter, on fast boats 3 blades are slower but get boat to plane quicker is all.

[@kpd3308]

To make a valid comparison you need to look at the voltage and amperage to see how many watts you are drawing. I suspect the Kipawa draws more watts.

[@jasonvenesky2438]

I’ve broken a wedge almost every year on the river. On the advice of a guide, I’m on year three of the kipawa.

[@RoughTake]

Great vid man. Was wondering this myself on my 55lb motor. Running a stock 3 blade.

[@trippduzstuff]

I have a 17ft aluminium with a 70lb minn kota. The wedge is a little better in the weeds, seems to have much more bite down low for quick acceleration. My first impression of the 3 blade was MUCH smoother acceleration with almost no vibration. Also noticeably faster on the top end. I haven't gone back since installing the 3 blade.

[@TheAndrewRock87]

This helped me huge!! Thx bro :)

[@williammoore6952]

I run two 40lb minn kotas. This might be something I will try. I fish a lake that is electric only. And we go about a mile or so up the lake. If I could get a couple of mph extra it would be worth it to me.

[@MOOREFISH]

Just Subscribed! Great video and solid information!!

[@Cade1936]

Just ordered mine after watching this thanks man

[@ninehundreddollarluxuryyac5958]

Thanks! I've been looking for something faster. This motor has plenty of torque but tops out on speed when I'm sure it could push my little boat faster.

[@kevinhagen6596]

I've been using these props for about ten, or eleven years. Low end is definitely better on the Kipawa. Right now I have them on my EM 160 on the Outboard, and I have to order a Kip for the front trolling motor. I beat it up pretty bad over the years, and currently using the prop that came with it. WWII isn't terrible, but the Kip is slightly better.

[@ericbrayman3244]

Great video and I also swear by the 3 blades they make! I only keep the original ones for backup. Three years and I still haven't needed the original one. :)

[@adventureswithfrodo2721]

Test how much current, amps, is used with each prop. My thought is the l
