Would any of you guys be able to tell me what prop I have on my boat? It's in my signature and it's the original prop. I want to get a SS prop but I'm an hour and a half away from my boat and was hoping some of you guys would know what came standard on this boat. TIA

Since this is a prop question, I will move it over to the prop forum for you.

Check the hub area of the prop for a stamping. It would say "##X##" for diameterXpitch.
Other than that you can try calling a Larson dealer and see what they recomend.

While the factory might be able to tell you the stock prop there is no way to know if it is the original prop.Check the stickies at the top of the page and let us know what you want to accomplish.

It's the original prop unless the dealer changed it out as I bougt the boat new. I was not increase both the hole shot and top end speed. WOT currently shows the RPMs ~4500. I was hoping some of you guys had this same boat and could look at the specs on your prop as I'm 1.5 hours from my boat.

Typically the boat leaves the factory without a prop, the dealer installs one at the time of sale.

Post the props current pitch, or look into the barrell and post the number's that you do have. If your at 4500 RPM your about 400 under...aka if there a 23 on there now you need a 21.

If you want speculation id try a 20 pitch 3 blade by solas in alum...cheap and probably the right pitch...but that is just a shot in the dark

Opps no 20's...:redface:

That turning point is a good buy but they have some heavy cupping and may act like a 21....The solas is a good prop...Call i-boats and see if they have a exchange program..
