Post Which prop for my 24 hp Beavertail?
Just got my first rig and it is a 24hp beavertail LT and the 9x7 it has on it now is worn down to next to nothing. Going to upgrade boats before the season and will hopefully be running a 1648 Weldbilt with three guys, gear and a dog. Was wondering if I should buy a new 9x7 or if that would be too big of a prop to push that load, any suggestions?

You may loose some empty speed, but I would drop a pitch to move that load.

As long as your shaft is 3/4-10 threaded Hill prop will work.
