Surfacing Prop in only 17" pitch?

**Air&Sea** · 04-08-2020, 10:39 AM

Does anyone know of a lower pitch prop, around 17"P, that can run piercing the surface.

I have a 26 ft Andros with a 300 Yamaha on a Porta Bracket. The boat only does in the high 40's so I am not looking for more speed. I want to be able to jack to motor up for running in shallow areas.

I would buy a Bravo 1 LT in 19 pitch and then pitch it down to 17.5 or so.. plus those blades are pretty robust so if your running shallow they will be able to run through a little sand and silt and not get to damaged.
