Suzuki DF140 Propeller
Does anyone have a Suzuki propeller they no longer want?
I'm after a 14 x 20 or 14 x 21 or 14 x 22 possibly.
To be honest any of the above would do the trick. Stainless or alloy
Thanks

Yeah that'd do it. I see you have the same boat as me. What prop are you running then?
How much do you want for this?

Alex, which 4 blade prop do you use, is it the Titan4? What are your thoughts on it?

Hi PD, not sure which one it is as it just says Solas on it. I think it is really good grips really well in the corners, gets up on the plane quicker than stock prop and is bang on 6000 rpm WOT. Maximus, whisper and Matt H know the boat well they have all been impressed with its bite.

Cheers for the advice. I've found an old mercruiser 3 x 13 x 21 in my garage, doesn't quite match the gear casing diameter, but it fits and spins freely so I fitted it and tested it today. Its like a new boat! Goes about 5 knots quicker and much better acceleration.
Why do Suzuki recommend 14" diameter props - they spin way to close to the AV plate!

No worries, I had just done a garage clear out which is why it was to hand. Will put it on eBay.
Happy boating.

I'm guessing it's the Rubex HR4 as its the only 4 blade stainless one that I can see that comes in a 13" dia. AJ, can you see any other numbers stamped on it?

There is nothing written on the outside other than Solas their logo and the prop size.
I think your going to be pretty safe PD ordering a solas 4 blade even if it is a different model provided the pitch and diameter is the same as mine can't be much else different.
