Im new to CCF and this is my first post. My 76’ Southwind has a federal 975 stamped 13RH1 on it. I would like to get it repaired or purchase a replacement. Can someone please refer the models of Acme propellers that would be a good match? The federal is useable with light vibrations because of the scalloped leading edges in the 3 blades so I’m thinking it would be a spare. |

Definitely not 1” of pitch lol. Probably a missing 3 out there somewhere… I’d go with an Acme 540, a very common prop maybe you can even try before you buy. Most importantly, spend $0 repairing that Federal. |

I’m not a fan of Federal props either but it did save my
vacation at the lake earlier this summer when I bent my band new Acme 15 minutes
after I drop the boat in the water. |

I went with the Federal as my spare and got a Acme 540. Thanks for your reply and the advise from CCF. |

I’d like to know everyone’s opinion on upgrading from current 3 blade OJ Legend 1027 to a 4 blade OJ ------------- 1987 SN 2001 |
