Looking for a prop for my Volvo 270 (short). Somewhere around a 26 to 27 pitch.
Thanks for looking.

If you have about 350 horsies you could run one of Grizz's 21" SOLAS's. If you have a lot more, the 23".

I doubt you could ever pull one to where you think you should. They stick like glue. I have a 21 and need a 19. I went from 5400 rpms with my Ultra 24" to about 42-4300 with his 21. 350 MAG, Donzi 18.

5400 rpms with your Ultra 24" to about 42-4300 with his 21. Really. :confused:
How does he do it?
I run a 14X24 Ellison fresh from the prop shop. WOT is 4900+ with the rev limiter that seems to be set at 5000. So its easy to pop off of it on flat water. So something has to be done.

If you all see him before me let Grizzly I'm looking for him.:)

The Solas has HUGE blades and very low slip numbers.
