Prop suggestions
I bought my 93 27 Fountain Fever last year with a bad motor I have finally about got it ready for the water. I noticed my prop spins the wrong direction. The guy I bought it from probally nabbed it. I have a stock 502 Mag MPI any suggestions on the right pitch and blade numbers. It has a 23 Bravo 3 blade on it now. I had someone put it in gear and in forward it is spinning the wrong direction. Thanks for the suggestions Brian

Re: Prop suggestions
Put the boat in reverse and throttle it up to go forward!!
Actually that would work for testing. I'm assuming you need a LH prop as Fountain did alot of left handers on those. See if you can get a 24-26P Bravo 1 4BL to test and get a baseline with. |

Re: Prop suggestions
Do you have a left handed drive? This is common to see a Fountain with a left hand rotation. However post your rotation and we can go from there.

Re: Prop suggestions
Someone suggested the cable throws, I looked up and took off the cable there is only one place to attache the cable. How do I know which rotation I have I assume it is stampped on there aomewhere

A Bravo 1 drive can be run left or right, assuming you have Gaffrig controls all you do is swap the cable end from the front to the back as shown in this photo. For a prop go with either a Hydromotive QIV 24p or A Bravo 1 25 or 26. I have run left and right hand props on my Fountain and with a relatively small pitch like those a left would work best for you.

Re: Prop suggestions
I am running the factory keikaffer zero effort controls painted white, the only thing that can be moved that I see is the cable holder
