Do you intend to carry them on the boat with you? And am I correct in assuming you have a left hand and right hand prop on your boat? Last edited: Jul 27, 2012

Custom then shipped does take a while. Be sure to specify LH or RH , and try new. Otherwise Boats & Harbors has many advertisers to locate what you need in used. FF
