Evinrude 150 prop

[jebb]

I have an aluminum prop on my 2002 150hp Evin Ficht and would like to change to a stainless. Would the pitch and diameter remain the same?

If its set up properly now, probably. If its not, probably not.<br /><br />We gotta know more about how its running now. And the set up.

Hey Roger, there is a prop forum just for questions like this. Might do better posted there. Just an FYI. <br />Welcome to iboats<br /><br />Dave

Thanks Dave and dhadley. Boat is performing fine and seems to reach approppriate RPMs and speed, however I was told that I could expect improved performance with a stainless prop. I'll look for the prop forum. Thanks for the FYI.

Stainless won't flex like aluminum, that's where the SS props have an advantage....

Less flex is "one" of the many advantages...

I think we need to head to the prop forum with this one...
