"Had a bit of damage to my s/s
"Had a bit of damage to my s/s prop so bought a spare alluminium one until I get the other repaired.
The S/S prop is a 23 pitch Quiksilver part no' 4811074A4023p. The aluminium one I bought is also 23 pitch (Michigan Wheel brand)Part no' 487812A4023p.
My original S/S prop worked perfectly, able to trim right out with no cavitation, great top speed, good holeshot, flat out full throttle turns no problem. The aluminium one is a different story, trim out a little too far and it loses grip, take off too fast and it cavitates, lost 5 mph off WOT speed, cavitates badly in tight turns. Both props look the same except one is S/S the other aluminium!! Does anyone have any ideas about this?"
