GENERAL INFORMATION
26 eng
3 BLADE VS. 4 BLADE
Available in many sizes of both aluminum and stainless, 3 and
4‑blade propellers have unique performance characteristics. In
general, 3‑blade propellers offer good all around performance
and higher top speed than 4‑blade propellers. However, 4‑blade
propellers are usually faster to plane and more efficient at
cruising speeds, but lack the top end speed of a 3‑blade
propeller.
Remote Steering Notice
The steering link rod that connects the steering cable to the
engine must be fastened utilizing self‑locking nuts. These
self‑locking nuts must never be replaced with common nuts
(non‑locking) as they will work loose and vibrate off, freeing the
link rod to disengage.
!
WARNING
Improper fasteners or improper installation procedures can
result in loosening or disengagement of the steering link rod.
This can cause a sudden, unexpected loss of boat control,
resulting in serious injury or death due to occupants being
thrown within or out of the boat. Always use required
components and follow instructions and torque procedures.
