Whats the best choice for prop on 85 Sea Ray Seville??

[blue_77]

Hello all,

I was lucky enough to recently get a 1985 Sea Ray Seville in really good condition for a killer price. Now I am trying to just do a general tune up before heading out to sea. I plan to make the investment and get a SS prop and keep the one that it has as a back up. any recommendations for the best prop out there for this 130 hp with volvo penta. Please advice. Thank you all.

We need information to make any meaningful recomendations.

What are your WOT numbers?
What prop are you currently running?
What is the current condition of that prop?
What are you trying to accomplish?
Why do you think you need to spend the extra money for stainless?

Thank you for your time and help.

I have not yet taken it out to check the Wide Open Throttle and what the numbers look like.

The prop is an aluminum 4 blade 19" I believe and there are no real dings or damage. But when I was running it at home it seemed to wobble a bit in the low RPM's not really lot of vibration.

And I thought that SS would be better since I plan to use it mostly out on the sea here in Southern California.

This is my first boat and I'm really just learning as I go. Please all advice is welcome.
