"Took my 150 sport to the beach last week and kept it docked for 2 nights. Noticed when I got it home that there was now some rust on the prop blades. Didn't think this would happen on SS. What is best way to clean it?

Thanks,
Steve"

Most stainless steel props will get what appears to be rust in certain water conditions. Do not worry about it. If you want to polish it off, you can use a simple polish like Brasso or hit it with Muriatic acid.
