OMC stringer prop question

[grahamh]

Hey guys.

So I've finally messed up the prop to the point where I can't even get the boat on plane anymore, but I don't really know much about the drive or the prop.

The boat is a 1974 IMP, and the engine is a V6 Buick. As I understand, I have a "stringer" drive, it seems to be the 155hp model (at least it says that on the drive.)

So basically, are props still available, and what should I search for? Will any "stringer" prop fit, or are they model-specific?

Sorry if this question is rambling, I just don't want to shell out $100 for something that doesn't fit at all.

Thanks for any and all help you can offer!

Re: OMC stringer prop question

Sorry I don't have any specific info.A brief search here on the prop store pages produced one
size prop 16" pitch pin drive non through hub exhaust.Your size may appear near the base of the blades. _ _ X _ _diameter X pitch.It appears it is specific to your drive and not shared with other OMC outboard props.Your prop may be able to be repaired.
Others may be along with more specific info.
