It depends on what you're going to hang it on and what you're using for power plus what hull.

Got to agree. But you'd be surprised how good it can look after seeing the end of a Dremel with a small sandpaper flapper wheel. I did one for a friend & it took all of 15 minutes & didn't look the same.

Go with the speedmaster. Bill's parts work great and there is great product support should you need a new shear bolt or replacement blade or whatever. Good prices for great hardware.
