    Prop Advice

    I slung one of the ears on my prop today. Its a 25 M on a 200 HPDI. I heard they were notorious for doing that
    so am now wondering what a good replacement prop would be. Is it the 25 T?

    Thanks

    24-25 Tempest Plus. Depending on the rpms you had with the 25M.


    This is the hub kit you will need.

    i have ran a 25M for 18 years ( same prop) I have never heard they are notorious for slinging ears. Probably jinxed myself reading your thread.

    It was an issue on the larger HP outboards and the reason they developed the T1. The 25M should live fairly happy on a 200hp though but any of them can sling an ear at any time. I slung one off a Powertech prop once.
