The M-500 is selected by many operators for new boat construction, repowers, and upgrading of propellers.

- The excellent design and increased blade area provides superior and higher performance without increasing propeller diameter, which may be impossible to due to clearance or tip speed consideration.

- The M-500 is the top choice on installations where heavy vee-struts, dead wood, or other hull appendages are agitating the water flow to the propeller.

- In addition, the M-500 is the choice where vibration caused by resonance is a problem. The blade design reduces vibration caused by the propeller, achieving smoother and quiet cruising.
