I have some props from when I raced midget class, for a 10 hp johnson, 3 blade cleaver 2 blade round ear, and 3 blade round ear, the cleaver I won the 1978 nationals in eufala al. with it, I dont know if they will work on a mariner but they were merc 1to1 race props Don Heinrich Made for my dad, I dont know if I want to sell them or not but might be tempted, I ran approx 35 with a ten horse on a 12 foot hydro and we had to weigh I think 800 lbs or so, I might dig them out and shoot some pics if interested, Matt
