prop size on r21 classic

[harry ames]

What is the factory prop size and manufacturer on my 97 R21 18 hp classic Ranger tug? I'm trying to avoid removing the Zink and nut to see the stampings on the propeller. I suspect my propeller is too aggressive to allow proper RPM at places like call powell and Yellowstone.

I would advise actually looking at your prop...mine had been changed by the original owner so it wasn't the one installed by the factory. (that detail was not disclosed at purchase...) And my boat was just a year old when I bought it.

Given the age of your boat it's certainly possible the prop has been changed. You wouldn't want to spend +/-$400 on a new one (less aggressive) without ACTUALLY KNOWING what you have now?

Rats! Okay, I'll get the zink off. Thanks.
