K&B Boat Props

Postby freddyst » Thu Jun 14, 2007 9:07 pm

I see MECOA is advertising K&B marine props. The sizing looks like the old Prother Props (Prather now out of business). Did MECOA take over the molds from Prather? I sure hope so. :D

Thanks,
Fred

According to posts on the Intlwaters.com forum here, Hyperformance Products bought Prather's molds and K&B/Mecoa is knocking them off. I'd be grateful if someone at Mecoa could address this. Does Mecoa own Prather's patents? Even the model numbers are the same...

When Prather was going out of business and could not supply props we made new molds. There are no patents on them and we do not market them as Prather Props. Our props are made here in the USA and we has additional sizes and materials coming out. As far as I know Terry Prather still owns the Prather name rights.
