I have a 1987 18' Outrage and am in the process of putting two 1997 70HP Johnson's on it. As most of know from experience, changing props can be costly. From experience what props are the best for all around use. I am thinking 19 stainless???

There are dozens of propellers that could be described as "19 stainless".

I would recommend a pair of 13-1/4" x 19" Stiletto Advantage 4.25 or Turbo 1.

Abbie -

Since many sellers don't allow you to trial a prop, it can be an expensive exercise to find the right prop.

Since Tom is a prop "guru", you can be certain his recommendation is spot on.
