Prop for '89 Ski Printed From: CorrectCraftFan.com Category: Repairs and Maintenance Forum Name: Boat Maintenance Forum Discription: Discuss maintenance of your Correct Craft URL: http://www.CorrectCraftFan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28806 Printed Date: January-15-2025 at 10:45am Topic: Prop for '89 Ski Posted By: newscotty2001 Subject: Prop for '89 Ski Date Posted: January-21-2013 at 3:18pm Thinking about a new prop for my '89 in the spring. I bought the boat last year and it came with a Federal 14x16 3 blade. I believe this may be original, but I also heard some 89's came stock with a four blade OJ. Anyway, I am looking for a good all around performer. Based on reading some old threads, I am leaning toward an Acme 422. The boat is used primarly for slalom 22-32 off at 32-34 MPH. We might pull an occational wakeboard run, but no ballast system or tower. I Would like something that may soften the wake at 22 off. The boat is in storage so I do not have any data on RPM at WOT...etc. It is the stock PCM 351 with the 1:1:23 trans. Any help/suggestions/deals would be appreciated. Thanks.

The 422 is likely the best choice for an all around prop if youre going to buy something blind (without comparing existing performance numbers). -------------
