Prop for Ski Nautique 2001

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have just bought a 1983 Ski Nautique 2001 (340 HP). The current prop is a 13 x 13 and badly damaged. What prop would be best for the above boat? I plan using the boat for slalom skiing.

Unfortunatly I have not been able to test the performance of the current prop as the engine is being rebuilt.

	An Acme 13x12(540) would be a good choice. I run an Acme 13x12 on my boat and it turns 3200-3300 RPM at slalom speeds, and still has plenty of low end for pulling. You could go with a 13x14 to drop the RPM some, but you never know when you might want to pull a tube, wakebboard, etc. Before installing a new prop, you may want to check and make sure the shaft was not bent. Congrats on your new Correct Craft, they are the best boats in the world. Welcome to Correct Craft Fan, I hope you will find this forum as helpful as I have. I Look forward to seeing pictures of your boat.

	I think it depends on what you want to do. If you want to wakeboard with lots of weight look into the 542. If you want to ski look at the 540. or the best option is call the guys at acme and they will tell you exactly what you want.
