Hustler Interchangeable Aluminum Props

[Bry21317]

Does anyone have any experience using these Props? Specifically I am wanting to use this on a Bayliner Capri 19.5 FT boat, with 88 Force 125 HP. <br /><br />If so can you give me any feedback on how you like these props or any other suggestions on what I might want to use on this boat.<br /><br />Thanks for everyones help on here so far.<br /><br />This is great.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Bryan Cox

I bought one of these, and am pleased with the performance. I have a 17' Tracker with a 90 hp Johnson. Quicker holeshot. The exhaust holes in the front of the prop seem to let the engine get the rpm's up faster. I also thought the price was good, compared to an OMC replacement prop. I would buy another one when the time comes.

Thanks,<br />I apreciate it greatly. I have been looking at investing in a new Prop, but am not sure exactly which one to go with, but the hustler really caught my eye as I could change for speed or for more low end power for wakeboarding, since I have a Force 125, with not much juice to pull me at 210 lbs.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Bryan

Re: Hustler Interchangeable Aluminum Props

I have a 19 foot Bayliner Capri with the 3.0 140 horse, and I switched out my stock prop for a Hustler setup last fall. I went with the 13 3/4 by 17 (2 inches higher pitch) and love it. It forced my redline down about 200 rpm, so the motor sounds better at redline (around 4600 rpm) and I picked up about 4 mph. My stock prop was a little damaged, so I doubt I lost much on the bottom end, I use the boaat exclusively for wakeboarding, and it pulls me up great. (200 lbs.) I am thinking of getting a 13 1/4 x 19 soon, and see if I could hit 45mph. the best I've done is 42. I think they are a great deal for the money, and for a boat like ours, do you really want to spend $250-300 bucks on a prop?!?!? What are you going to gain?

I hear ya!<br /><br />I think I am going to go and buy the Hustler 13 3/4" X 17 tonight and try that out this weekend and see what it does on my boat. I love the idea of being able to swap the prop easy.<br /><br />My boat has that force 125 engine on it, I wish it had your engine.<br /><br />I love the boat, now, I did get about 2 years of solid use out of it when I purchased it. Then I had to redo the entire floor and interior last year. Now she is brand new on the inside, and not another one that looks likes it. It only took me about 8 months total to get it all done though, lol. But that floor should never rot again, I put about 3/4" of resin on top of the fiberglas and new wood, then replaced all the vinyl and carpet inside the boat. The only thing I have left to do is remount the ski pole, then Im ready to wakeboard my butt off again. I cant wait. Its about 90 here today and I'm stuck at work.<br /><br />Thanks for the info,<br />Bryan Cox
