Vessel Info: 3100 Open 1994 454 Crusaders
Hi can someone suggest the best size and type for this boat, 454 crusaders. Trying figure out to buy a set and recondition the existing for spares or just recondition the existing over the winter. Mine were painted so I'm not. exactly sure the size. Thx

The original props on a 1994 Tiara 3100 Open with 7.4L Crusaders (320 HP ea.); 2.0:1 gear transmission gear ratio should have been: 19"x21" - 3 blade with #7 Cup (1.5" shaft diameter - I believe)
Later in the 90s, Tiara switched to a 19"x20" prop. (same engines, same transmissions). This prop would give you slightly better hole shot, would reduce propeller loading on the engine, but may have reduced top speed. The difference is negligible however.
