Default BBlades questions

Anyone know BBlades hours? I don't see hours listed on their site or a way to order a prop online. Is there a link I'm missing to order props from them with a credit card? I'd like to talk to Brett about ordering a prop for my boat but I'm working 10-12 hour days, 6 or 7 days a week for the next month and can't take my cell onto my work project site (tight security).

Sorry guys for the delay. This is our busy season and I regret falling behind on emails. My plan is to catch up on all emails this weekend.

As far as our hours, we are open Mon. through Fri. from 8AM to 4PM. However, I am typically here till 6PM and later.

Plowtownmissile, we do not have a on line order system currently in place. We Lab Finish each and every propeller specifically to the application and the boaters needs and goals. That being said, we are looking into doing a "standardized" Lab option and including it in a web based ordering system. We are constantly upgrading the web site and we currently have a large volume of improvements we will be implementing over the next few weeks.
Plowtownmissile, if you can't call me, could you email me at my private email address?

I will do everything I can to answer your questions quickly and hopefully supply you with the propeller you need.

Brett

Brett hustles to get the job done and spend time talking with his customers. That's why his props are the best. He has the skills, and puts in the time. And I thought us business owners just sat in the sun drank fine wine and were surrounded by beautiful woman. In reality the people who get into a business and think that are the first to be out of business. We work harder than our employees.
Ok I got off on a tangent. Just saying Brett goes a great job and whatever time it takes to get on his long list of satisfied customers is well worth it. He is working on 2 projects for my customers now. i have one customer with a 27 Daytona and an ilmore, who from new was with another propeller company and I remember the first few times he took his boat out could not get on plane. Then finally got on plane after 3 go arounds with props. I always service his boat, then last fall he asks me to get his boat and run it down the lake for service. I had to call him to ask if he has been dealing with the extreme difficulty getting on plane. He said yes the prop guys said he needed to run with the wind and feather it to get on plane.
Brett is working on a custom prop for him now. Bet it is faster and gets on plane with no issues.

Thanks guys.

Your comments are appreciated.

Plowtownmissile, I thought that was you!

DonRoc, the custom test prop is done and will ship Mon. The other application is still on my mind. I'll do what I think is best. I'll look at it again Mon. morning.

Sorry for the delay.

yes, question about props for my 28 Saber in the title field (used the webform on your homepage) probably sent around May 2. Not in a big rush or I would have called, hate to bother folks when they are busy.
