I am looking to buy a spare prop off of ebay. my prop is a 13x13 rh 1 inch. will any prop with this specification fit. Or do I need to look for a specific brand.

Thanks,
Todd

that will fit most pre-power slot reduction trannys. whatcha got?

that chromed ss 13x13x1 rh has been damaged if i read the listing correctly. doesn't he want 200 bucks? i would just get a new one for three hundred instead of vibrating around the lake.

buy a prop from bill on this sight if he has the right size.

13X13 the work horse prop, direct drive.I have nothing of that pitch, all Brass 13x15,16,17,4 Blades. I have one 11X16 4 blade,Three, three blade 12X 15,16 pitch Menkens Blueprinted STEEL. The steel are, noisy, for speed not for smooth quiet running. However they arent that bad. I myself run OJ 4 SS blade and 3 blade SS, ocasionally a menkens three Blade.My opinion OJ stainless are a superb propeller and reasonable. He will work with you to tweak the prop if necessary. But you should know what size you need. I say that because if it doesn't perform, the seller alway's takes it on the chin. If you go Stainless from brass drop one inch diameter and add one inch pitch. That's the norm, but all boats, hull, motors, drivers ,water, etc arent equal. And I'm sure opinons aren't either. The HP rating also are in fact inflated, and that's allowed. If you repair a SS go to Menkens, H Kinswater, RB props, OJ or someone of that nature who make SS props. Most SS props cannot withstand too much repair. Good luck.
