wmkooo2: I do not have a exact load and condition comparison with this SRA3 prop and the factory Yamaha 11 1/4 alum prop. With 200 lbs of sand to mimic my wife and our dog the 11 1/4 alum prop did 5140 rpms. Different time of year, different lake, elevation and load the SRA3 prop did 5660 rpms...

I still have this prop available.

I have a new PowerTech up for sale. It's a Stainless steel SRA3 in 9 pitch for a Yamaha. Part # SRA3R9PYM30, class B, 3" gear case, 20 to 35 HP. I bought this new for my 2018 Yamaha F25. It did about 5660 rpms at 21 mph on my boat. That is about 9.48 % prop slip. It's just not enough rpms that I...

I know this is an old post. I’m the op so I figured I could revive it if I had new info to post. I thought it might help someone if they were trying to figure out their prop selection. We have been running the boat mainly with the factory Yamaha 10 ½ pitch aium prop on it. At times I’d put the...

Tubrotodd. Isn't the Turbo Hot shot stainless. I'm just an average Joe and when out of my pay scale I try to rely on others experience. After spending hours and hours reading up on things, I thought the consensus was to not use stainless on small hp motors because of weaker lower units. Being...

Fuel tank questions I couldn't find answers to in a search. I have a Bluskies 3 gal tank I got with a motor I bought for my last boat. I have a different boat with a new Yamaha motor now. I started off using that Bluskies tank. The tank has a vented cap and the plastic seems pretty thick as you...

I guess I just couldn’t resist it. I found a new Yamaha 10 ½ pitch prop for a reasonable price. Got to run it and see what it would do. It was a windy and choppy day when we got to the lake so things weren’t so good at first. At times it would only hit 5500 RPMs or so. Went up the river and...

The Yamaha dealer I bought the motor at is almost two hours away. I tried buying off a closer dealer but they wouldn't come down on their asking price at all. Over 1k difference. It's the same dealer that I tried doing some kind of prop trade with. I feel they are used to people with big money...

Got the new Yamaha 9 7/8” x 9 pitch prop and have been out a couple of times with it. Top speed is about 21.7 MPH when it starts to hit the 6200 rev limiter. It bites better so it is almost 1 MPH faster than the Solas 9 pitch and there isn’t as much throttle left over before the rev limiter is...

Talked to the prop shop guy this mourning. He didn't have anything. He said those 11 3/8" props are a different design and that I can't use the different results between the Solas and Yamaha on them with my 9 7/8" props. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a new Yamaha 9 7/8" x 9 and hope...

Talked to a couple of prop shops today asking for advice and looking for used Yamaha props. The consensus was it is easier/cheaper to lower RPMs on a smaller prop by adding cup. Most said the Solas props were ok. I do know that compared to my Yamaha prop the Solas blades are thicker and don't...

Talked to a engineer from Turning Point. He confirmed that the 10.375 x 11 is the smallest alum prop they have for my motor. He also confirmed that I wouldn't gain much if any over the Yamaha 9 7/8 x 11 1/4 prop. He also said Solas props were of reasonable quality and suggested that I just have...

Daleh. I even tried calling Turning Point with no answer. I don't leave messages cause seldom am I called back. It appears that the smallest prop they have listed is the 10.375 x 11 prop. I do not see how that will get me 860 RPMs over the Yamaha 9 7/8 x 11 1/4 prop. So I have given up on them...

ktoelke54. Yes the 10 is close and is what I have been using but if we get into a headwind and or a current the RPMs drop down to 5700 or below. Acceptable but still could do better. The 9 would still be hitting the rev limiter. I have learned on small HP motors that the 200 RPMs per 1" of pitch...

Not sure if this is the right place but have Another prop question here. I know enough to know I don’t know enough about props without seeking advice for my situation. I have called a couple of places and I even emailed Solas with no response from them. So first some info about the boat which is...
