Prop torque?

[astronutski]

I can't find in the manual, nor did searching turn up anything (quite surprised), but does anyone know the torque for the prop nut?

FINALLY putting her in the big lake tomorrow for maiden voyage and don't want to lose a prop LOL.

What boat are you talking about? Is the Alpha One Gen 1? If so, Alpha one prop nut should be torqued to 55 foot pounds. Make sure to bend down three of the tabs on the locking washer that sits on top of the nut too! That gives you additional insurance that your bolt won't come off!

Thanks. Yes, the Alpha 1 Gen 1 in my sig, on a Regal 19' Sebring.
Ya, thanks for the reminder about the tabs!
55 it is.
