    Evinrude 1989 E50TLCEC

    Looking to buy an emergency replacement prop to stow on my boat. The manual states the prop now is a 11 3/4 x 17, Overton's lists replacements as 13 x 11 up to 12 1/4 x 15. How much leeway do I have here, and what is the difference in performance? Thanks, God bless, Mike.
