It's time to replace the prop on my Nissan 9.8. I am setting up my 14' Jon boat for river fishing here in Virginia. There are some rapids and rocks, so I want a prop that has some get up and go about it that will get me upstream. My choices are on ebay are a 3 and 4 bladed prop. I have no idea which pitch to use.
Tohatsu or Nissan 8 9 8HP Amita 4 H Thrust Alum Prop | eBay
Solas Prop Tohatsu Nissan 8 5'' 7'' Pitch 3 Blade RH 8HP thru 9 8HP 5011 085 07 | eBay
The boat is no speed demon, as it is somewhat heavy, but it's all I can afford to power it with right now.
I also want to protect this prop against rocks this time with some sort of cage or brace to keep it off the rocks.
ANY and ALL suggestions are appreciated!!
Thanks in advance!
