 9" diameter prop worn to 7.5"
I have a 24 hp beavertail longtail. I believe that the prop used to be 9" in diameter. I just went and measured it this evening and it measured 7.5" in diameter. How much will this effect the performance (speed) of my rig?

 Re: 9" diameter prop worn to 7.5"
it will affect your speed about 2mph
but it really affects your rig in mud b/c when the cup in the prop wears down the prop cant catch grip in the mud an your motor will un high rpm an it will so called spin out in the mud
