Lost the prop off the boat few years back. No idea where to go from here, can anyone point me in the right direction

The boat is a 1992 wellcraft excel 18sx 2.3L volvo penta inboard. If theres any serial numbers that will help just let me know and I`ll grab them

Thanks

Helava first post fingers :p

I'd start with calling a welcraft dealer and see what the stock prop was for your model when sold.

I would say a 17,or 19 pitch. It depends on load in boat, and what you are doing with the boat. If you want to pull tubes or such, a 17 would be my guess. Then record wot rpm, and gps speed and go from there.

If you read "read this first" at the top of the page and have some of the info we might be able to pin down prop size
as motors age sometimes prop changes are necessary.
