another option is the "rock guard" under the prop in the Bensen plans - maybe you could make it larger to shield the prop from the spray (even if you do go to a composite prop). Might try a reinforced leading edge, too. Great idea for getting to remote lakes.
Still have this thing? I'll buy it from you.

I was - over 20 years ago. But not now. With age comes an increasing sense of one's mortality.

You could show us that taking off from the waters.

You want an Ivo-prop see "floats2005"
Seems to handle any amount of water
