    Default prop size DP 290 leg

    What size props are you guys running on your Billfisher 26? I have a volvo 200 hp, duo prop, need to replace mine and can't read the numbers.

    Thanks

    Most have A4...I have run both A4 and A3 and the A3 is better at speed.

    There are two different gear ratios for the DP 290 leg...1.78:1 and 1.95:1.....
    I have a 1.78:1 on my 41P.....usually a 41 had the 1.95:1 ...The 43 and 44 usually use a 1.78:1 ratio leg.

    Check Ebay Motors.

    I picked up a used set of F3's for less than half the cost of new. Looks like a couple of new sets of A4s on there now.
