Humber 600 df 140 prop size
Hello,
I tried my new rib last monday, and the propeller is too short.
The prop is a 14X19.
Max speed 36knt with 6300 rpm.
If someone with the same boat can help a poor french ribman...
I think a 14X21, or perhaps a 14X23 could be a better choice.
Thanks
Antoine

It isn't supposed to reach the bottom though 
Sorry I could not resist that obvious and extremely poor joke

Bonjour,
I changed from a 14x19 on my suzuki df 90 to a 14x21 and it reduced the revs by about 600. Combien coute le propulseur 14x21 en France (et le 14x22 inox)?

I tried yesterday a 14X21 prop.
It was better, but...
With five persons on board, 37,7 knt, but still 6200 (at least) rpm.
It's too much, and i will try a 14X23 next week.
Antoine

in theory to pass from 19 " to 23 ", the motor would have to come down of 800 turns the average e' 200 turns to inch

A + Adonf,
I have doen some research on my Suzuki DF 140.
Below is the link.
http://rib.net/forum/showthread.php?...uzuki+140+prop
Basically I ended up with a custom 22" prop. Far better than the Suzuki job. Just waiting for a new one as I've bent my old one but thats another story.
Regards Nick.
