I've managed to tear my prop up at the ramp (didn't remember to raise the outdrive!) I'd rather take care of this myself and learn something (else) in the process. Tore the skeg off as well, but that's another issue.<br /><br />First off it is a '95 Sea Ray 230 with a 5.7 engine and Alpha I outdrive. It came with a 14.5 X 19 pitch(?) prop which a mechanic changed out to a 14.5 X 17 because I complained about not getting up on plane. It works much better. I looked here on the "prop finder" and see 2 candidates. One is an Amita 14-4/5 X 17 and the other is a Michigan Wheel 14 1/2 X 17. <br />What's the deal with the Amita? Why is it 14 4/5 instead of 14 1/2? And why is it so inexpensive?<br />Is the Michigan Wheel really what I'm after? Am I missing anything? Your advice is appreciated!
