What Propeller?

Post by MIAcanes44 »

I have a 18ft key largo with a yamaha 90 on it. i am looking at getting a stainless steel propeller for it to give me the best performance. It currently has a 13 1/4 x 17 aluminum on it right now and does alright. Any recommendations? Do you think a 19 pitch would help me?

Google PowerTech props and give them a call. It may be more than pitch that needs to be considered to give you the ride you're looking for.

What Barhopr said. :stupid_1

If you're running a 17 aluminum you're probably going to want to go to a 15 stainless. But there are lots of things to consider in prop selection. Give PowerTech a call.
