[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 431618, member: 15636"] I may have a spare prop just like that one at home, as I know it is an old OMC pin drive from the smaller motors. [i]My best guess[/i] would be that someone may have been using the motor to push a heavy load and modified the prop to a lower pitch (albeit via the 'Bubba' method ...) to get the RPMs up, so they weren't lugging the motor.
