I want to switch to an aluminum prop from the stainless that came on it. What size prop should I get. Stainless is 14 1/4, 21 pitch.

1995 190 horizon, 5.0 Fuel injected, OMC/Volvo drive

Boat is not used for much skiing at this time only cruising around with the kids.

Do you like the way your current prop performs?

I am docking the boat and would like to switch to an aluminum prop to help prevent corrosion.

If you're worried about electrolysis, I'm not sure I'd switch for that reason....seems to me that your anodes and then your outdrive are more likely to be affected.
In my original question, I was actually wondering if your SS prop gave you the top speed and got you up on plane to your satisfaction. If so, I would probably get a matching aluminum prop. It won't be quite the same, but likely close enough...

I have the same boat with a Stiletto Stainless 14 1/4 x 21 prop and the original aluminum prop of the same size. I can not tell any difference in performance. The particular brand of prop may make more difference than just the size.

Performance is perfect for the boat just looking to keep the electrolysis down. My drive is spotless right now, never been docked before. I only want to buy 1 prop so I may just get the same size in aluminum like you suggested. thx
