There is more than one prop.-------The prop attaches to the motor.-----The prop FITS the boat and what you do with your boat.----So post that info or look for a " prop selecter " type website online.
Right, I understand that there is more than 1 prop...which is why I asked the question. I want to know what people would commonly use for this engine. Prop size is largely dependent on RPMs at WOT, right? I read that my WOT range is 4500-5500, so for my 17ft bowrider (max limit is 6 people I think), I would want to get as close to 5500 as possible. Is that correct?
My concern is that the old prop is not the correct prop, it's also pretty jacked up. I have not yet run this motor in the water with people in it as it is a new engine on the boat. I also do not want to run the boat in the water with the old prop.
