I have a basic 260 HP mercruiser 350 small block with a standard aluminum prop. I am interested in changing to a stainless steel prop. What type prop as far as pitch and diameter should I be looking for. Also, do I need to bottom paint my boat every year from a brackish slip.

Re: stainless steal prop

Get the same pitch as your aluminum prop.<br /><br />Bottom paint is not necessary if you are attentive to maintenance and pull the boat to keep the bottom clean.<br /><br />Bob :cool:
