Choosing the right prop.

[Johnnypro]

Hi guys I was wondering if anyone has had this experience before and I’d willing to share the result. I have a 2005 quintrex 610 offshore with a 150 Yamaha four stroke and I was looking in getting the prop changed to stainless. Would anyone have any ideas as which one would be the best for my rig. Thanks guys.

Nice boat mate, my mate just got a prop from somewhere beginning with S.

With their suggestion it’s given his boat a massive increase in performance, turns out he was geared too high.

if you can’t work out who I’m talking about let me know and I’ll pm you the company.

whats the issue with your boat? 

What is the WOT revs at the moment?

Thanks for your reply and there’s nothing wrong with the performance of the rig.

i just thought maybe I can get a little more performance out of of her besides the standard prop. Cheers

In that case id save the money and buy another rod or reel lol.

if your hitting recommended WOT revs and getting out of the hole well then i wouldnt worry.

same pitch and size just in stainless wont do too much imo (maybe a touch more responsive)

could be wrong though.

it will look pretty!

Solas props have a chart to help you find the correct prop, if you have any problems give them a call, they are excellent at props.

unless your hitting max revs early and have heaps of throttle left  goin to s/s is no real benefit..unless you want to go up or down in pitch to change your handling...rick
