Last weekend I had drifted out of the channel and hit the bottom hard. The bottom was mostly sand however my prop has damage to all three blades each blade has a nice ding taken out. The banging noise was so loud I was sure my outdrive had damage but seems to be fine.
My boat is a 1991 25.5 Regal with a 5.7 350 and a Alpha One outdrive. I have no idea what prop to buy the boat planes out at 3000 rpm between 22-25 mph. The boats top speed is about 38-40mph at about 4600 rpms. on a good day. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Damaged Prop Help

I would go with a 15.5 x 15.5 or a 16 x 16. Had similar boat with same engine & outdrive. I had the 16 x 16 worked mint.

Most places that sell props will have a book or a program that you can use to determine the correct prop for your drive.
