So, I need a new prop for my 2005 E-Tec 50.
The story isn’t too exciting. I had a close encounter with a boulder, at 30 MPH. Feeling very lucky.
Yes, I plan to have the original prop repaired and kept on-board for back-up.
I also do want to stick with aluminum.
I hunt this motor way more often than I fish it, and I’m not very nice to it. Stainless doesn’t seem to make sense for me.
The original prop is stamped 13.75 x 13.
The Evinrude BRP website doesnt clearly identify the props available for this motor, but they do not appear to offer a 13.75 x 13, for this class motor.
1. Do we have a site sponsor, or contributor, that I should patronize for this purchase?
2. Does anyone have experience with this specific motor/prop replacement, that would recommend a specific make, model and/or pitch?
I’m running a 16′ Alumacraft Yukon. My WOT top speed was 25 MPH. I do not have a tac to identify what my WOT RPMs were.
Thanks for any and all suggestions.
cheers
