Stupid question that I'm sure the first person looking at will be able to answer. What size is the shaft on my '90 ski nautique? 1" or 1 1/8" ?!

It's an ACME machined 13X13.5 1 1/8"
We are currently running an acme 12.5X13 for pulling ski shows but I wanted another 4-blade for some personal use. For some reason I thought the shaft was a 1 1/8... Got it on Ebay from someone that said fits Nautique for a good deal so I didn't even think about it. Silly me... |

Its probably a LH prop too. Sounds like it came off a Malibu or similar! ------------- |

Maybe someone will see it here and be able to use it. I'm not sure if any of the 1.1 bfns have the big shaft,can't remember what my 86 had... my 91 has gear reduction so I need a little more pitch or I'd help you out. Tim? take it away HW  ------------- Brian |

You guys are great!
I'll look at it again when I got home maybe it's actually a 1" and I got lucky...doubt it. Otherwise, It's a brand new Acme machined if anyone wants it. I need $220.00 out of it....thanks!!! |

The only DD Correct Craft's that *might* have had 1-1/8" shafts were the Python powered boats... but they all came with the 1.23 tranny. I have no idea if it would work for a V-drive or not. All the DD 454's (BFN's, etc) got 1" shafts.
FYI, Acme doesnt list a 13x13.5 of any type on their website. You might want to check the model number printed on hub. http://www.acmemarine.com/prop-list_ski-boat.php - Acme Ski Boat Propeller List ------------- |

Hi,
You can get a sleave to run that prop on your boat. I run one on my old sprint boat, Eric at OJ built a SS prop for my boat and sent me a sleave as my shaft is 1" and the prop was 1-1/8". ------------- Hobby Boats can be expensive when the hobbyist is limited on their own skill and expertise. 1993 Shamrock "fat" 20. 2008 Nautique 196 5.0 |
