I've done alot of searching for a turning point prop (seem to be the best bang for the buck) for my outdrive but I can't find one for a 1978 OMC 800.

Do they make props to fit the 800?

If not what's the next best bet. I'm looking for a vented prop 17 or 18 pitch.

Sorry for all the questions....

Are there any advantages/disadvantages between a three blade vs a four?

There are plenty of TP props listed in the props section in the usual sizes.

There seems to be a shortage of aluminum 3 blades. Plenty of aluminum 4 blades and both types in SS. If you want an aluminum 3 blade, get a Solas.

You would not normally need to use a vented prop on a runabout.
