My motor is a 2001 mercury 2-stroke on the 2001 13 footer. I have a 10-3/8" diameter 14 pitch prop. I just bought a new prop from Tracker Marine awhile back. It was about $130. If you're interested, I might be willing to part with my spare prop. It has some dings in it but is definitely in decent working shape. I'd like to get $50 for it so I can afford a stainless steel someday.
This is the prop that Whaler sent with the boat new. It is great for the boat with 2 adults on board. 30+ MPH at 5000 RPM. Max speed really drops off when you get to maximum weight capacity. It gets difficult to get on plane with that motor when at full weight.
