SUZUKI DF 140 Prop size?

What brand prop is yours Skunk?

It's a Suzuki 3 blade stainless 14 x 20. It has vent holes at the base of each blade. It's the original prop that the dealer fitted when he installed the motor. I run fairly heavy, with lots of rods, gear, anchors, coolers, and always 30 -55 gallons of gas. The hard top adds some weight too. At WOT, light, with motor trimmed up perfectly, she will get to 6000rpm and ~38mph. But I rarely do that. When I'm in a hurry I'll run at 5600 rmp, just shy of WOT.

I got my prop figured out. 14x19 in aluminum is perfect. 13 1/4 x 20 would be the size i need for stainless. Theres a prop shop near my way that has a few gurus. They know the black magic of the prop worl for sure. I dont know my speed since my gps is not rigged up just yet but it sure feels like im moving. Im gonna guess a little over 40.

I have 2 brand new aluminum props i think 13 and something by 15 and a (i think) 14x17 if someone would like a spare let me know ill come off em dirt cheap... $50? theyre brand spankin new

Benfishing, I'd keep those props unless you have others ... you just never know what you're going to hit and suddenly need a spare to get home with. I never travel without at least one spare for each engine onboard. Glad you got your prop problem figured out :)
