I have a FW 170 Horizon F/S with 130HP Johnson Outboard I am currently running a 4 blade aluminum prop Prop is solas Rubex 9x13 9513x140x21 This prop will take the boat to 45mph@5200rpm Redline of engine is 5500rpm, so there is room to spare. I with this prop it has decent pulling power. I frequently pull 2 tubes at once. I am happy with the performance, but looking to replace with stainless prop. Will an equivalent sized stainless prop perform the same? |

No. It would perform better. |

I just went from aluminum to stainless. It's like I bought a new boat. |
