Yumaha 90 2 stroke

Whats the best prop for a Yummy 90 on an Avon 5.4 ?

I guess the boat is going to be used for diving a bit but speed is always more than welcome

I'm looking to buy a couple so if anybody has a suitable prob for sale I'd be interested

Good question, have been thinking about the same issue. I have the original K 17 ali, not much to complain, but think the 19 pitch is better(higher speed) with lighter loads. A SS maybe best but with the amount of rocks over here, maybe better to stay with cheaper versions.

I've got a 17" pitch newly refurbished (extremely good refurb too ) alloy Merc prop here with a brand new Flotorq hub kit to suit a Yam.

Let me know if it's of interest.
