[QUOTE="68glasspar7870, post: 485027, member: 30860"] That numbers on the prop read “13 3/4 x 15” and the number, which I assume is a part number, looks to be 391198. The prop has seen better days. Pictures below. Side note, does 24 knots sound about right for this motor? Obviously the motor does not come with a tachometer, but by the sounds of it, i am hitting high RPM’s with good top end power. Honestly I thought it was going to be faster on my tiny boat. I was expecting it to be even a little dangerous. Don’t get me wrong, it’s my first boat, and it’s a good boat to start on. I just thought it was going faster than 28MPH. I guess I can’t complain for having just over $1100 into the whole project so far. [/QUOTE]
