I just purchased a 1984 Blue Fin 16' aluminum boat as a complete restoration project. It has a 1984 Evinrude 70 hp. The current prop is rather beat up and I can't find the size stamped anywhere on it. I was offered a stainless prop, either 14x19 or 12.75x21.
I don't know that the 14" diameter will even fit the outboard. And I don't know if 19 and 21 pitch are proper for the boat. From reading through other threads, it's looking like I need a 14 pitch prop for my boat/outboard setup. I don't have a tach yet and can't run the boat with GPS as everything is iced over here in NY.
Can anyone suggest the proper size prop for 70 hp evinrude on a 16 foot blue fin aluminum hull that will be used for river fishing.
Thank you.
