I am looking for a RH 12.5 x 13 or 12 x 12 prop for a 302 Nautique. Gently used is OK.

Thanks for the offer Bill but I think I need to hold out for a 12 or 12.5. We suffered trying to ski last summer with my '68 302 SN and hopefully the props recommended by a site member with the same type boat will fix the problem.

The props are brass, they have 6 * rake letting the hull to have good lift. All 3 & 4 are great for ride pull power, speed. I believe the less dia run the boat without chine running.The 4 blade have good acceleration and speed, the 3 also pull and run straight, and speed. Now these props are for 1.1 gear ratio not the 1.23 box is another different story.

Also I had these props cut to get the 2 inches above the rudder. Under power lets you turn easier, also lets the prop work better. Most older Nautiqus the props are to far from the strut and the props are 2-3 inches below the rudder. This was changed on 1997 from my discussions with the power to be.

Cut? The bore opened up? I shortened my driveshaft 2.25", assuming same result...If I am misunderstanding this can you correct me Bill? Thanks

Yes, the shafts were shortened to be about 5/8 of a inch behind the strut.gave the boat more running surface and a better ride, etc.
