Prop choice

trebby91 · Nov 25, 2021

Hi, All,
I am new here.
I have purchased a 40 hp Evinrude fitted to a 22 foot cabin cruiser to be used at sea.
I do not require a lot of revs or speed more power to pull a net.
Which is the best propeller to fit?
Thanks, Barry.

One attached to a 70 hp.

What diameter/pitch is on it now?

The prop did not come with the engine.

Use 11" or seek help from your local dealer / boat shop.

Might want to invest in a kicker motor to get to shore, as that lower unit will be strained
