A 1442 is a 3-blade 13.25" X 15" with an .090 cup. No doubt you have a GT40 with a 1.23 reduction. What prop is on the boat now? I have a brand-new 3-blade 1458 which is 13" X 14" with a .135 cup. I'm willing to part with it for about 60% of the lowest price you can find for a new one on the market, plus freight. Art ------------- "Art" |

"I made him an offer he can't refuse"...  I wouldn't doubt very long about the deal Art is proposing here Fly... ------------- - Gun control means: using BOTH hands! - Money doesn't make one happy, but when it rains cats and dogs, it's still better to cry in a Porsche than on a bicycle... |

Art, I am looking for a spare prop for my '86 BFN BBChevy (Blair's Barefoot Banana Boat II) 1:1 Transmission and right hand rotation, and am wondering if the 1458 would be a prop that would be a candidate. Art, PM a price to me, please. Tim, any comment. Thanks Todd ------------- http://correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=4811" rel="nofollow - '78 Ski Tique |

UT, the 1458 and the 1598 are the 2 props that I think would work good on your BFN. They are both 13x14 3-blades and only vary by the amount of cup they have (.080 vs. .135). I have one of each at the moment, and want to try them both back to back to characterize the difference. I plan to keep one for our BFN and send the other up to NY with you! ------------- |

Tim, Thanks for the update. I'll tell Art that I am waiting on a water test in CT and that if he has another buyer that money talks and to let his 1458 go. Otherwise I still want to be behind any gawkers for his prop. Ran the newly acquired '78 Nautique in the river Sunday, and I am pleased. No GPS or shop tach, but watchin the water fly by for a step off!! Lots of R's. It would blow the '90 Ski away, and sounds good even with the orig mufflers. No issues to work on other than minor cosmetics. However.... UT ------------- http://correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=4811" rel="nofollow - '78 Ski Tique |
