1.2.3 Propeller selection
The performance of your outboard motor will be critically affected by your choice of propeller, as an
incorrect choice could adversely affect performance. The outboard motor is fitted with propellers
chosen to perform well over a range of applications, but there may be uses where a propeller with a
different pitch would be more appropriate. Dealers stock a range of propellers and can advise you and
install a propeller on your out board that is best suited to your application.
