| Post subject: | Props are all wrong! |
I was talking with robert4wd and looking at each others boat. we noticed that on my 23GTR the prop is stamped on the center of it the same as the 35GTR. i have been wondering about my prop from day one that it was huge and that it was a 35GTR prop. i turn 3500 with two guys in my boat with all my mods. i would think i would be closer to 4000 with my mods. when i picked my motor up at GTR it was right before lunch and they had rigged out another motor with a shorter shaft and was trying to put it on my boat when i noticed they had to set up the other motor besides it and hurry and get it all set up and was wondering if it might have got a 35GTR prop instead. What i need to know is there a difference in the 23GTR and 35GTR and what is it and how do i tell? Are they stamped different on the hub part and whats the 23GTR suppost to say compared to the 35GTR stamp? |

With three guys in my boat (260, 230 and 205) my GTR23 on my 1540 chugs along at about 10 mph, sort of like a tug boat. No getting on plane with that much weight. My prop is 11" in diameter. |

Clickster, just measure your prop and if it's 12 inches, then it's probably for the 35hp. If it's 11 inches, it's probably the right prop (although I know GT did make an 11 inch prop for the 35hp at one time). |

The 11" and 12" look the same and are stamped the same so you have to measure it. |

The last 11" prop I seen was on Lil Peppy and it had some CUP on the blade tip, the 12" really dosent have much cup in the tip. |

You probably have a 35 prop seeing as you have 50hrs and run SETX mud and have 11.5" Call Gator-Tail about a new prop. |
