Is that a 2 or 4 strokes engine ? Is manufacturing data available to check year of make ? Factory delivered props are usually medium pitch to give good hole shot and speed.

Happy Boating

Being that old, assume hard to find a new replacement as newer models are all through hub exhaust. Better send prop to a prop shop and get it fixed would be the way to go or get a second hand on boat yards. Good Luck!!

Happy Boating
