johnson prop

[moose83]

Hi guys i recently purchased a used 1964 johnson seahorse 9.5 motor that needs a prop can any one point me in the right direction as to good place to get one and what prop i should get. my buddy told me to count the splines on my shaft but my shaft does not have any splines on it. if there is anyone from the pittsburgh area on here that would know of a good place to buy on in the pittsburgh area that would be good. thanks for the help as i am new to the boating world.

Re: johnson prop

Welcome, You have a whats called a "pin drive", no splines. There a bit pricey on here, I would look on EBay. I Think they made 3 or more differant pitches for your motor, Is there one on the motor now? Read the sticky "Read This First".

The motor came with a 8 1/4" X 8 1/2". diameter X pitch.
There are 3 sizes listed here at iboats Your size would depend on the boat your putting it on and your typical load.

Re: johnson prop

Thats a good price, and looks like its in the year range for your motor. I personaly would give IBoats a call to make sure its a pin drive, but, I think those years were all pin drives.

Re: johnson prop

The picture listed is not a representation of your prop.If the prop is listed for your motor it will be right.
The size is right and the Solas Amita has a good reputation.We would be interested in your results.
At least your gps speed lightly loaded.
