I have a 90hp 2003 4 stroke merc. Motor bought new in 2006. When i bought it the prop was dinged pretty good. No vibration or anything, runs great, but, i don"t like dinged up stuff. Does this motor have a yamaha power head?
How can i tell the specs of the prop? What pitch or whatever it is?
I'd like something that gives me a bit more hole shot. Its a fishing boat. 19.5ft sea nymph, goes great, tubes fine but it needs just a bit better hole shot for skiing, i can ski on it no problem but newer skiiers and larger people have a bit of trouble getting up. Can i get a prop that will change how it comes out of the hole? can i put on a "hydrofoil" think thats what they are called. Anyway i want to change props and keep the one i have as a spare.
Thanks

Bryan

Re: Prop help

last few numbers on prop are 5P19 thats about all i can read off of it. Is that 19 pitch maybe? If so man i can get way way more performance from a new prop, not even close to my recommended rpm range. My ony concern is that its not 19 pitch but 19 diameter?
