I've got a gas thunderboat and a prop question
i've seen some of the nitro guys with holes drilled in their props
it must to be to lighten them, any other benifits?

Nope .... Controlled cavitation introducing air threw holes at low rpm so prop slips while hull is going slow and rpm low with limited HP available.

BTW, Good observation :woohoo:
