    What year is your Opti?

    If you have the time and if you know the diameter and pitch and you're happy with the performance.
    Check the internet for deals on SS props.
    I got a 4 blade ss for 115 hp Yamaha for $275 on a close out. Normally a $450 prop.

    Its an 09. The old one was a 19 pitch and I think 13.75 dia. Its on a 17.5 ft alum. bassboat. Top speed is about 40mph.

    I'm happy with my Michigan Wheel Prop.
    Check out your locals and see what they would charge for an SS.

    Good Luck!

    Check out this site this is where I got my Apollo SS for my Mercury 50 hp! Looks like your prop will cost $279.00.

    Just look on your old prop for the numbers. You can call these people and they will answer any questions you have. One thing that I found out pricing new props is most do not come with a new hub kit! And that can add as much as another $50.00 to the total, ITG Marine prices include a new hub kit!

    If your boat was sold new as a package within the last decade or so the boat manufacturer should be able to help with recommendations by calling their Customer Service Department. Let them know you want stainless for this prop and what model boat you have, not all 17.5 alum bass boats are the same and pitch designation can vary from alum to ss. Good luck.
