So, i'm looking around for a spare propeller for my Mobius V 2000.
There seem to be different sizes recommended by different manufacturers/stockists.
I cannot remember (as my boat is currently in storage) exactly what size my prop is.
I think it might be 14" across. (probably the factory fitted one)
I know its LH, Keyed, and 1 1/8" bore, 4 blade.
So, the question is....if i put a different size of prop....say a 13 x 16 on my boat.....what effect will it have on my travel?
I understand it will make me either slower, more acceleration, or higher reving, etc....
Will it cause damage?
If i put a 13 x 14 on, or even a 14 x 20.......will it get me through the week, whilst my original is being repaired?
Any suggestions/ideas or even experience would go a long way to stop my worrying.
