Apache Warrior Props
I am putting together a 36 Apache Warrior with SSM 3A's prop shafts are 4" below the running surface. Power will be around 600hp per side and looking for a good starting point for props.
as expensive as these things are I'm hoping we get pretty close on the first try...suggestions?

Joe, the boat had 17x28 4 blade props with the motors that were in it . Approximately 850 hp. Spinning to about 5800. It depends on what rpm your motors make power . Not knowing your motor specs I would say 17x 26 should get you close . Tom

I hope Joe found the right props to help set up his Apache,....I on the other hand have a 35 Cig spinning (2) 18x26 - 3 blades off SSM #3's 650 hp. @ 5500.
Boat was rigged in the mid 90's and runs super flat & quick out of the hole...Owners of Flagship Marine knew what they were doing back then, but I always
thought what a 4 blade would do to current performance...seems not many back then used a 4 blade...am I wrong?.
