I stand corrected, old medium and small outboards used less than inch pitch and currently high end Rev4 and Enertia Eco XP using special alloys

Question, other than a Bravo 2 who has ever put a 18 inch diameter prop on a Alpha or Bravo drive?
16" is the diameter limit for alphas

Here is what he wrote "18x14.5 4 blade aluminium to an 18 x 15.25 4 blade stainless"

Diameter is usually placed before Pitch
yeah but :D, its kinda obvious that the OP got it arse about face ( which is cool , I knew what you meant :) ).... I mean someone even pointed out that you cant fit bigger than a 15 1\2 inch prop to that leg.
Ha ha ha ha love it :ROFLMAO:

4300 is still low for that engine should be 4800 -5k at WOT.

If you go in shallow water lift the drive up would think you can swap props in the water , done it many times. or do you have an extended swim deck covering the drive ? Just gotta be careful the thrust washer doesnt stick to the prop and drop off in the water
I may be able to hang of the dock and do it at slack tide.
