Hi Guys.
Been out of circulation for about a year fixing up the lake house and building a new pier and floater.
Filled in any spare time rebuilding this Johnson.
Can anyone recommend a prop pitch. Looks like about 14 inch diameter.
Thanks.

Sure, somewhere from 12" to 26" pitch.
Minor details like what kind of boat, goes a long way for making a guestimate

Agreed--Props attach to the motor but they " fit " the boat and what you do with the boat !

Ok. I know not what boat but I will cater for a 17ft Bass boat.This is most common around here. Would 19 pitch do it or would you recommend something else.
Thanks.
Jim.

Well for most 17 ft boats I would say 19 or 21. but... there are lots of different hull designs. Engine height will make a difference in prop choice. AL or SS? Until you know what boat you are using....

Thanks Jimbo I will order a 19.

 

[jimmbo]

Hold off ordering until you know what you are putting the motor on, it might just save you some money

It's an idea.

Thanks.
