Is my prop worn?

[Fl_Richard]

I have twin 1995 150 hp Johnson's on a Wellcraft 238CC. When I got the boat 5 years ago it would run 50MPH GPS at 5800 WOT using OMC 14.5 x 19 Prop P/N 389924 screws.

I now have over 1100 hours on it and the speed is dropping even though the RPMS are staying at about 5800 WOT. The props have slight points on the outside edges, I've been told this indicates a worn prop. Does this mean replace them or can a prop shop add back on?

I guess my question is where do I go from here?

Thanks
Richard

Props DO wear.

A prop shop can bring them back up to snuff.
