Yes, a 14-14.5" diameter. I was thinking higher pitches where diameter goes down. 17 is the generally accepted starting pitch for a 150-175 hp 2 stroke from those that run them on these hulls. Stainless does good in silty muddy water where aluminum where get eroded and worn away in no time. If you boat where you have a good chance of hitting rocks, oysters, or logs, then I reccomend aluminum. I know some say to run a stainless because the prop will hold up, but I've seen WAY too many propshafts bent or gear cases with holes in them from hitti,g things with stainless props to ever reccomend it. I tell people it's your money, but a $100 to buy a new aluminum prop is alot cheaper than a used $350 or more gearcase. And the prop you can change on the water, the gear case could require a tow in.
