I purchased a used boat two or three years ago - 1993 274 F/S (17'-9" long fish and ski) with a Johnson Silver Star V6 150 hp motor. I mostly fish, but sometimes pull tubes in the summer. The prop on that (when I got it) was a stainless steel 4-blade shooter at 13-1/4" x 27pp. I screwed that prop up Friday night (hit something) and instead of getting it repaired I'm thinking about switching. I've had advice (on the prop page) to get a Raker 14.5 x 22 pitch, and I purchased a "like new" model on e-bay over the weekend. I also had input from a local prop shop that said the 27 pitch was way off for the 150hp Johnson. So...I'm thinking that the 22 pitch should be better, but I just heard from the e-bay seller that they had already sold the prop to a walk-in customer and they're refunding my money - I'm back at trying to buy a prop.

Now my question - does anybody know what prop came on the original setup for this boat? No jack plates or anything...just the original Stratos set up. I never got this over 50 mph and I'm wondering if the prop was the reason. I would be most appreciative of the original make and size. Thanks, B
