replacement prop

[force 90]

My brother gave me his old boat, it s a 16 ft fibreglass gd simpson barretta with a 1993 force 90 mercury outboard. What size and pitch prop should I get? It came with no prop. Help would be greatly appreciatted.

Re: replacement prop

Since you haven't had any responses I'll try a guess with a 15" pitch.This would be a starting point and
you shouldn't make any changes without a tach and a gps for speed.
Perhaps you could find a dealer that will let you try props with your intention to buy.
Unfortunately there is a limited supply of Force props.

Re: replacement prop

i'd be looking at a 17 pitch if you are using it for Skiing or carry 3 or 4 people:
Michigan Wheel Vortex XHS Aluminum Boat Propeller #992214 for Force 90 HP Outboard 1990 - 1994 Dual Exhaust - iboats
(you will need to purchase the hub kit that comes with it)

or look at a 19 pitch if you just use the boat with a very light load

PS - if you have the thrust washer and nut, etc... there is another michigan prop that will fit. I would verify everyting with iboats.com if you order one from there.
