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...

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)

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.
