Hello,
Are there used propeller for sale? Before I call my local marina and sound like an idiot, does anyone think I'll be able to find one. Still being a newbie at boating, I don't want to shell out a whole lot of money for a new one. I destroyed my last one when we decided to camp at a boat to shore campsite. No docks, just run'em up to the shore.

Re: Used props

That's pretty dinged up but a prop shop may be able to repair.Yes there are used props around.A prop shop may have one. There should be a size on the barrel of the prop or under the prop nut.Being a Force your prop choices will be a little limited
But new props are available for about $120.
A repair would probably be $40-60.There appears to be 2 different gearcases
So what ever way you go be sure you have the right one.

Check ebay or craigslist.
Lots for sale cheap. I bought a brand new aluminum merc diamond 4 last year for 70 bucks, still sealed in original box. Dealer wanted well over 200 for that model new.

Re: Used props

My prop from my Merc looked just as bad. The local marina sent it out for repair. Two days later it was back and looked brand new! $75 total including a new bushing.

Re: Used props

I got one that looks just like yours. Mine was fresh out of the prop shop when she met a rock.
Most prop shops have used ones and they take yours on trade if are in hurry.
My prop shop will even loan you one if they can.

Re: Used props

I just bought a new 4 blade for $88 or something ridiculous like that
