I’ve posted a question on propellers but it’s not showing up. Why? |

Submit your question again--as you did for this inquiry. You probably "lost" the post along the way... _________________ Bob Austin

I want to buy new propellers for my 22 cruiser. I just repowered with new twin Honda 40’s. I put my old props on the new engines. They are aluminum 3 blade 12/12s. What are other people using for props?
Thanks.

I repowered my Honda 40's last year. Using Honda Stainless props 11 1/8" x 13" now. I like them better than the aluminum props from the old carbureted 40's. (I ran the same pitch) _________________ Mark n' Yuka Elwell |

Thanks, Waypoint, my research points towards the same choice you made. What specific change did you notice by going to stainless props? |

Durable, thinner blades, less drag, looks great, better top end, no flex, better fuel economy. |
