Jim, I thought the Cattos were not rated for enough horse power for the 13B.  Have they come out with a new blade?  Was I mistaken?

Have you considered Catto FP composite props?  They are bullet proof as far as FOD goes, and I've heard nothing to indicate that they don't perform as well as Performance props.  And they're about $500 cheaper!  After my recent experience with FOD (very minor damage to my Catto; a nearly identical incident shattered a Performance prop) I'll never stray from composite props (glass over wood core).
Worth considering ... Jim S.
