Manny,The only problem I have with the 29p is my hole shot. When I am very heavy, full fuel and full well and 500lbs of meat, she seems to have a hard time getting the rpm's to spin. Once she get's over 1200rpm then the bow comes down. I was tossing the idea of either oversizing the holes she has now, or drilling 4 more smaller one's and play with it that way.
I have logged around 40 hours on this prop and shows no sign of stress. Plate at around 1/4 above. Trim gauge and smart craft gauge show between 7.5 and 8.5. (5 degree wedge installed and both gauges bottom out at zero and clear the piston rams at 10)
I have never felt that I was going to get wet. I use a method of trim and JP Lee posted on BBC and it works for me.

You will see no signs of stress, unless it is a crack, or missing blade. I hope you get years out of it, best you can do is look at everything when you pull out.
