PROP QUESTION......PLEASE HELP!

[Devils Horse]

It depends on why you want to get an SS prop. If it's just reliability you're after you could just buy a spare prop and keep it in the boat. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think it'll boost performance all that much on a 115 engine. If it were me, I'd just get a spare and spend the SS prop money on a fishing trip or 3.

I agree, I would stick with the aluminum prop just go up in size to a 20. That will help slow your rpm's down. They say every inch larger is 200 rpm's, so I don't know how high in the "Red" is for you, but if your engine is running high Rpm's you would get more out of a larger prop.
