Maxum 3500 prop specs wanted

[SimonB]

Hi there
Is anyone able to help me with the original equipment prop specs for my 2006 Maxum 3500 SY? It has inboard dual Mercruiser 8.1s. Any help is appreciated. I am looking for spares.
Thanks!

Re: Maxum 3500 prop specs wanted

The information is as close as getting out of your easy chair and looking at the prop. Diameter and pitch are normally stamped on the barrel of the prop between two blades, or it is stamped/cast into the prop hub. In some cases you may need to remove the nut and washer to see it. 16 x 24P would be an example of a prop that is 16 inches in diameter and it has 24 inches of pitch. Other than that, you only need to know the make, year, and model of the engine and outdrive. The boat has no bearing on that info. You can find props right here on iBoats. Here's the list for an 8.1 with a Bravo drive:

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately my boat is in the water 200 miles away so not easy to look at. It has inboards and if I am looking at the prop guide right, I would need the part number to look it up. Just hoping someone with this boat / motor / gearbox combo might know what Maxum specified. I did find an article on a boat with dual 7.4s and they were using 19" x 19" props. So far, that is all I can track down.
