Basseyes- I would agree with the ride vs. glass too. My 1st boat was a 17′ bass tracker deep v. Lot of good memories with that boat in Canada with my wife and daughter. Stability of the pro-v will be a welcome relief- I don’t need to peel the skin off my face anymore- been there, done that!

Bzzsaw- I would agree with all the above. Have had the same thing happen to me with our pontoon. Got my fiberglass bass boat rolled into a stainless prop fishing docks last year. I appreciate your all’s confidence in my Lund investment. Plan to have this as long as I can make it down to my dock.

Thanks guys- my stability on the water (or off) isn’t what it used to be (62 yrs old). This was one of the main reasons why my wife agreed to a new Lund Pro-V vs. another low profile bass boat. We figured to both fish & boat out of this for a much longer time, along with being drier & safer. And no fiberglass cracks to worry about!!

QW- here in Ohio we have several state lakes that stock a hybrid called “saugeye”. A cross between sauger and walleye. They can survive shallower Midwest lakes better than walleye and are just as tasty. With these and an occasional trip or 2 to Lake Erie, I will definitely be covered with this boat and my walleye fix.

QW- no, she is not single and I am an extremely fortunate man. She surprised me almost 20 years ago to the date with the Triton bass boat- now this?! She is definitely “My Keeper”!

SuperDave- that’s for sure! Hope this picture posts?

Update- I was pleasantly surprised to find that my wife surprised me and leaped way over the aluminum prop question and agreed to a stainless steel prop, on the back of 200 HP Verado, attached to my new 2018 Lund 1975 Pro-V! Now, I just need to sell my 22′ pontoon and 2000 Triton TR20. Thanks everyone for your replies and input- good reading! Tight lines- LF. ><}}}>

All- Thanks for your responses. I have always kept an extra prop, pin, and wrench in my bass boat. Thankfully, have never had to use. Thanks again and fish’on.

Thanks Savage Brewer. Think I will keep the aluminum for shallow river fishing- buy stainless for lake fishing. LF

SuperDave- Hope your ss prop works out for you this spring. I’m sure my dealer will let me try ss props for the best fit.
Thanks- LF

Hill hiker- Thanks for your info. I have a good dealer and I’m sure they will let me try or exchange ss props to find the best fit. LF

Did not know both props come with plastic hub instead of tearing up lower unit- NICE!

Thanks- LF

MnPat1- I think that you and others have convinced me to go stainless. This was my feeling going in but wanted to hear from you all. I will be meeting with the dealer Tuesday and hope to talk them into supplying ss prop to finalize the deal. I agree with 150HP+ to supply stainless prop. Is 19 pitch Tempest correct for 1875 & 150 Merc 4 stroke?

All- Thanks for your replies & input. Good info.

Grouse- no problem, just trying to decide if I should replace the aluminum prop that comes with my new Lund 1875 Impact & 150HP Mercury. Very good point about replacing lower end vs. aluminum prop- Thanks
