PROPELLER CHECKLIST
At least twice a year check the propeller for:
; Loose, missing or corroded hardware.
; Nicks, dings or missing propeller material
;
Bent propeller blades.
; Objects wrapped around the prop such as fish line.
; Decomposing propeller blades
(Electrolysis symptom).
; Aluminum prop with paint coming off near blade tip
(ventilation symptom).
;
Check the propeller pressed in rubber hub for slippage.
PROPELLERS
We have carefully tested and chosen
the propellers to give your boat the
best possible performance and have
allowed for the additional weight in
equipment that might be added to
the boat.
With stern drives it is a good idea to carry a spare set of
propellers and hand tools in order to handle an emergency
propeller change. Refer to the engine manual for proper
procedures since each stern drive application is unique.
Call a marine professional or your Regal dealer for further
information.

CONTROLS
INSTRUMENTATION
The helm station is equipped with a complete set of
instruments that allows you to monitor the condition of
the engines. Close observation of the gauges may save the
engines from damage.
The dash instrument panel is powered and protected
by twin 20 amp ignition breakers located above each
key switch. The breakers protect each individual engines
instrumentation wiring. The engine wiring itself is protected
by a main breaker with a push button reset mounted on
the engine. Refer to your engine manual for information
on type and location. If a breaker “pops” figure out the
reason why before resetting it. Each dash switch is also
protected by a breaker. For an overview of the dash refer
to the pictorial in this chapter.
Contact a propeller shop or your closest Regal dealer if any
of the propeller checklist symptoms exist. Propeller shops
have special equipment to refurbish both stainless steel and
aluminum propellers. After making any blade alternations
the propellers are “re-pitched” in special jigs.
