1982 Mercury 25hp, hand till, manual trim

[SkeeterDuke15]

I am having a hard time finding enough info about the motor online. It runs great but the propellar its as old as the motor and im looking to upgrade. Im doing some research for a new propellar, but i dont know much about the one i have on the motor, i will try to get as much info as i can when i get home tonight. But i am pretty sure its the original/ basic prop that came on the motor new. I have it on a 15' fiberglass skeeter, and i assume it runs around 25-30 mph. Will a more aggressive prop be too hard on the motor? thanks! I will update this post later when i have more info.

If your motor is a xd 25, then here are some options for props, http://boatpropellers.iboats.com/Me...s/738/?**********=624592882&*******=896552678

I just bought a 13 pitch prop on this site for my xd 18 and it was roughly half the cost of the nearest marina!

Skeeter, if you will give me your WOT RPM and GPS speed I can help you.

If you read my review, i will be udating it, as i ordered a 4blade solas it will be here next week. I will post the numbers. Also i am working with turning point on the venting issue i had. So from my searches this might be the closest thing you get to real numbers from a similiar motor other than buying the props yourself.

I am running a late 80s earlie 90s mariner 25hp remote. Not the same as yours but cloers than nothing.

Do what hwsii says, with those numbers he can hook you up on a prop.
