This was on a club boat and we had the local prop guy (has Acme blocks) touch it up after we sold the boat just to make sure it was ready to run. It never needed to be repaired or anything like that. Been sitting in the drawer for a while, and the new boat will have a different power train. Has the original box and I get pretty cheap UPS shipping, or we can arrange other means of transfer. $150

Wonderhow this would work on the Skylark?
I've got an Acme 12 x 11.5 on it now-- 4200 RPMs- 40 MPH on the GPS. Get it cut down to a 12 x 10.5 ?? |

Maybe only need to cut it to 12.5? I don't know, wait for Tim. I think he might be out west snow skiing this week though.

Actually, that might work... 1" less pitch on an Acme will usually run comparable rpms to a traditional hand finished prop. Like HW said, it would need to be cut down in diameter for long term use on a 16' hull.

Yes, a 12.5" acme offers approx 1" of clearance on the 16' hulls, which is a safe number.
