Re: How to measure worn prop If that motor calls for a 9x6 then it wouldnt hurt to try one. If ya know somebody that would let ya borrow one just to try before ya spent the money on one that would be a good idea. It doesnt take much wear at all on a surface piercing prop to make a huge difference in performance. If ya got one inch of wear thats alot.

Re: How to measure worn prop I ran a 16 & a 23 hp longtail and when i got both of them the props were worn an inch. Putting new props on helped a little bit with speed but made a huge difference in the mud. As long as you're motors running right, It will be worth youre money.
And when you get the prop off, if remember correctly, it has the original size stamped on the end of the prop.
