prop ID help

[rguy]

I've got a 1988 Force 85HP with single exhaust. I need to buy a prop with more pitch, but I can't tell what I've got. These are the only numbers I've found on it but none will decode...

Thanks.

If the prop is original. Then someplace on the prop close to the blades.They usually have a # stamped in there.It will be a 15 or 17 or 19 stampped in there someplace. What RPM are you running at WOT?J

Re: prop ID help

Those are the only numbers I could find. The engine will exceed 6k if I put the hammer down but I keep it down to about 4.5 to 5k.

Thanks.

Re: prop ID help

I dropped the prop off at a local marine shop and they could determine the pitch.

The only thing I can tell is that it has 3 blades and it is approx. 13.5" in diameter.

If I can't figure this one out, can someone recommend a prop. This is for a 1995 20' Pontoon boat with a 1988 Force 85hp. I want to keep the maximum RPMs about 5 to 5.3K.

Thanks.
