Hello,
I have a 17 foot Skeeter aluminum bass boat aka g3 and it has a yamaha 40 hp 2 stroke on it. The prop is a 10-1/4 x 14p and it runs at 5100 rpm at about 30mph gps at 700 feet above sea level. I was wanting to pick up a SS prop for it and was wondering if you could suggest something. The max RPM in manual is 5500.

Re: prop suggestions Yamaha 40hp 2 stroke

I'm surprized someone hasn't rsponded.
It's difficult to be accurate when making changes al prop to al prop.When going from al to ss
throws in more variables.I'm not able to suggest a specific model prop. If it was mine to do
I would try to find a dealer that would allow you to try props till you find the best one.
Usually requires a deposit and you buy the prop in the end.I would start with the same size and
once you have those numbers you can tell which way to go. Stick with the same brand same model unless it seems poorly matched.
