The
selection of the correct propeller will allow the engine to obtain it's
full RPM as well as the designated horsepower. Engine horsepower is
very closely related to the RPM that the outboard can obtain. In other
words, if the outboard can not reach its specified RPM range, it cannot
reach its specified horsepower.
Once
you have selected a propeller
size that is right for
your application, you
may purchase a propeller
from our aluminum
props or stainless
steel props on-line
shopping section of this
site. Please make a note
of the part numbers listed
below before visiting
the shopping section as
you will need to recall
it.
