Well it happened, I bent my first prop. I am sure that I am the only person on this website that has bent one, but I will ask anyway. First of all I have a 96 Sport with a Ford GT40 motor. Next, here is what it says on the existing bent prop. On the end it has stamped OJ 14 16 CUP. On the side is has stamped OJ Johnson Legend 1195. Next when I reverse with a neutral rudder the stern goes to the port side.

1. What rotation do you think I have?
2. What 3 blade and/or 4 blade would be good for all around performance?
3. What kind of bent prop do I have now?
4. Does anyone have a link to a video on how to pull a prop?

Looking at the prop this afternoon, it looks like the prop will not come off without removing the rudder. HELP!!!!!

Thanks

No need to pull the rudder. An acme 422 would be a nice upgrade on that boat for all around use. Delta propeller has the best prices around- click the "links" section of this site for a hefty discount.
