ACME 1235 Prop 14.5 x 14.25 on 2008 Outback V?

[thesack]

I have the 1235 on my boat, granted it is a Supra 21V but I have no clearance issues. I would go measure that amount of clearance that I have but the boat is in the shop right now waiting to be fixed.

Yeah, I am sure it fits fine on the bigger boats.

Dug up this old thread... so think on a single axle Boatmate with a 08 Outback I'll have trailer issues with the Acme 1433? Also how smooth is it, vs the stock 3 blade OJ? Is the stock 3 blade OJ a CNC prop? Im hatin' my current stock 3 blade oj.. I'm suspecting it of causing vibrations at low speed (under 8 mph)

When i ordered my 1235 i went and measured the clearence between the blade and the trailer, granted its a 2010 lsv so it fit fine but cant you just go measure for clearance?

Take a look at the Acme 1433. Huge holeshot, extremely smooth and quiet, no trailer clearance issues.

^^^^ 1433 is what I am running now. Same basic deal as deafgoose same oj prop but probably a different log

When you load your boat for the first time crank the boat on rather then powering on . Then check to see how much clearance you have. I would think you will be fine but I know one guy who was close going from the 13.7 to the 14.5.

Thanks... I'll have to check and measure.. any clue if the stock oj is CNC'd? Will the acme improve my vibration issues?

How is your alignment?

The shim-kit is only $30 (or so) + shipping, well worth it.

The guy who owned my 2005 Launch 21V prior to my buying it, hit the 1235 on the trailer when loading. Sure, there is just barely enough clearance, but once angles and such come in to play, evidently you can still whack the prop. The shim kit is only about 3/8" (if memory serves) but evidently it's enough.

Speaking of the 1235, I sent it back to ACME to rebuild and it looks great. Hasn't been used because I have the second 1235 that came with the boat. If anyone's interested, I might as well sell the second 1235, I believe it's a bit of overkill when it's only my wife and I, and we're in South Florida (low altitude).

Now today I'm curious if anyone is running a acme 422 (4blade) on their outback, and what the difference was over stock OJ 3 blade... I know the nautiques use the 422 on their 196's... and I've never been in a bad 196...
