Mike, thanks for all your knowledge. It costs a fortune to learn what we can learn from you for free. Ain't America great. I have learned so much in just a few minutes. You go into real mechanic detail. The science. I luv that. Because that is what I need to know to fix motors right the first time. Not the third time. God Bless You! I like them old Evinrude 2 strokes. Those old aluminum or pot metal props were easy to tear up. Daddy was always worried about shearing a pin or shearing the prop as he said. Great stuff to know.
Good video a couple yrs back I was wondering about my little "72" johnson it came with a 2 blade prop but I noticed that others the same but of slighter newer vintage had 3 blade props. so I checked out all the info specs part #`s of the motor parts everything I think rated rpm at speed the whole 10 yards. So I put a 3 blade on and as you said there was very little difference in the hole shot and as far as top speed I think that was the same. I did take into mind that I run a jon boat and they take an extra half a horse power to move them along.
Not all outboards turn clockwise (or righthand) Most of them do but there are some older a few that run left hand props. Old Tomas and Eska motors use left hand props.
Hi really informative Video !! I am from Austria and i am searching for a Upgrade prop for my Yamaha 8A/614 buildt between 72-85 ...! Ist's a shear Pin Propeller.....can you tell me where i can get such old props....cant find any in Austria...! Thanks a Lot Florian Leinfellner
I just started watching this and just the analogy you did to describe what they call "pitch" so we mortals can understand the concept is already better than all those videos done by "experts" including the big Marine names here in TH-cam. Big thanks to you for these Master educational videos.

Thanks for a great and informative video again T-Mike! I always enjoy and learn a lot from them 👍🏻
Thx T-Mike!! Very helpful information, I’ve not heard comparison on 2 to 3 blade before, I found this intriguing..top/bottom end.
Keep ‘‘em coming!
It,s interesting. I always think of a prop as pushing but your absolutely right Its pulling.
Great info is always my friend 👍

T-Mike What are your views on brass & Stainless props I saw a FD-10 Johnson with a brass prop sure looked purdy 🤠
Brass is heavier & stronger.
Good info. I learned a little. Thanks!
Very Nice informations thanks
Great video. Any idea where can I find the screw on hub for a 1957 Evinrude 18 hp 15020? Can you get by with a nut from Home Depot? :)

Excellent content!! I'm looking for a 0778797 - Prop, Aluminum 8.5 X 9 for a 1980 7.5 HP Johnson if anyone knows of one. I spun the hub on mine.
What do I look for to order a prop for a Johnson seahorse 10 horsepower? I’ve only found one so far. Not sure if props are universal or not?
You need the part number
@@michaeljsimon I found a couple that fit. One is solas and it’s only 70$
Wow that stainless is a pricey prop!!
Wow !
That's the age grouping I'm interested in. Except I also have a 33 ? HP Evinrude. Dandahermit
