1970s OMC prop chart?

[9D280]

OK, here's one for the historians.

Looking for info from an early 70s OMC prop chart for a '72 Fastwin / Sportwin (20/ 25 HP).
The "as supplied" props were 9" & 10" pitch, but I'm wondering how high or low the pitch range went for these machines.

It's a "solid hub" type - not thru' prop exhaust. Proper oldschool

they still do have a friction hub along with the shear pin... double protection.. so only "solid" looking

I actually have a factory OMC 12P stainless! on my 1973 25HP- it's a rare one.
part number of it is 389320

it has too much pitch even for 1 person in my Avon 3.4, so I'm not sure what application it would have... racing only I suspect... i.e. seaflea or, for twin 25 applications

I would like to have an inch of pitch taken out - is that possible with SS props?

the 10P aluminums over rev my 25's I have 3 of the 22CID motors

a 1973 25HP Johnson
a 1975 25HP Johnson
a 1975 20HP Evinrude

Hystat,

Brilliant! Thanks.

I suspect putting a SS prop on will quadruple the value of the engine (and that includes the fuel in the carb bowls! )

It's pushing an 11' Dory along, flat bottom, so I was expecting a lot more top end speed, bearing in mind I had a Suz 25 (granted 20 years younger) on an Avon SR4, and it had a 13" which worked well.

Follwoing some teeth breaking antics last weeekend, we're giving very serious thought to swapping the dory for an Avon W350/400 kind of thing. By trhe looks of things we might not want to swap props just yet!

Cheers.
