Congratulations on the new boat and motor. In order to provide you with the best prop recommendation for your application. I will need to know your engines model number, so I can verify what gear ratio you have.

You will probably find that a 15" or 17" pitch prop will work. Try each one and make sure that the one you choose allows your motor to turn about 5600-5800 rpm with a full tank of fuel and a normal load of passengers and gear aboard.

I forgot to mention previously that the redline for your motor is 6000 rpm.

The pitch is the 15" or 17 " number. The diameter is determined by the manufacturer. Be aware that finding the best prop is a trial and error procedure. Your dealer should help you too as he should be familiar with your rig.

Your engine is an AA model wtih a 2.67:1 gearcase ratio.

Talk to your dealer as you are not yet registered as the owner of the outboard motor

I've had a lot of success with the 13x17" stainless steel 4 blade Rogue. I have a 15 ' fiberglass bow rider 1200lbs. Does 37 mph, very happy with this prop choice. Turning 5600-5700 rpm on the 60 E-Tec
