RUSS GALE MARINE REPAIR & General Propeller
selling garbage on the Internet.


I purchased the prop from a guy ( RUSS GALE MARINE REPAIR, 19 Leisure Terrance, Weymouth, MA, 02188 ) russell at russghull@msn.com or Russ G at russghull@netzero.net

As you see from the advertising that it is from Russ Gale selling it to be rebuilt / refurbished by a Prop Company and the Prop place will send it directly to me.
What can go wrong correct? The picture of the prop looks good. It is going to be refurbished and mailed to me.


Russ Gale who sent the prop to General Propeller General Propeller Co...Your ONLY stop for Props, Shafts, and Marine Hardware and they worked on it and sent it directly to me : It is sent directly from General Propeller to me with all documentations that General Propeller gives / work order paper / etc. All invoice é tracking / General Propeller Co. paper work / etc comes with the sale.

Here are some pictures of a prop that got rebuilt.











I will not lie.

The prop is garbage.
I paid $110 total for it to Russ Gale
But hey.. Its rebuilt / refurbished / something / or whatever they call it. I call it PAPER WEIGHT.
HEY did I mention it comes with all documentations that General Propeller gives / work order paper / etc. All invoice é tracking / General Propeller Co. paper work / etc.

Even General Propeller says its garbage in there emails (NOT IN THERE PAPER WORK) even though they did the work.
I have to clarify that even though the paper work says rebuilt / work done... this prop is garbage so don't think it is usable as a prop.
There email to me is :

Roger,

From the pictures that prop shouldn’t have been repaired.There is a lot of corrosion & holes in the one blade.We would suggest that you replace it.

Regards,

Larry Thompson

I been told
'
Do not put that prop on you boat from the photos it looks like it's toast it's ready for the scrap pile.
'
also
'
that prop was run without a thrust washer, and I am sure Mr. XXXXXXXX, the guy who sold the prop, told us to go ahead. This guy, XXXX, buys junk off of E-bay, and then re-sells it on Craig's list, and has us do all of the reconditioning.

I paid using Paypal. WHAT A MISTAKE. EVEN THOUGH PAYPAL SAYS SAFEST WAY TO PURCHASE OVER THE INTERNET.

Because it is not an ebay item Paypal does not care as long as the seller has prof of a tracking # for a package sent to me. They could send me a brick and paypal would not care. Actually a brick would be worth more $ so thats why they sent garbage.
