Plimpkin Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 Is anybody running a power tech SCD4 or RXB4 prop or other 4 blade? I own a 2002 1900v and am running a 3 blade 17p power tech. Runs good but loses traction in hard turns and hole shot could be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribute Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Ran an SCD4R16 & 17 on my Cobia Bay 19, very similar hull. Should be the right prop for you and give more grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradM Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 I have both of the props you listed on my 1900v, but I have a 2 stroke 115hp Yamaha. That being said, everyone likes the SCD4 a lot! I always run my RXB4 because I had it worked over and tuned last year, and it runs great. With that being said, the SCD4 is a better prop out of the box for that hull. Both of mine are 17p and I get 5000-5100 at WOT, no trim and trim up to 5400 rpm for 44 mph. I would think with that 3 blade you're running, you'd want a 19p. I bet you're turning some RPM v. speed with that thing. I ran a PowerTech 3 blade @ 19p and it worked well as long as the boat was loaded perfect. Any bow weight and it was a nightmare to get on plane and work through the creeks. Good luck!

Plimpkin Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 What were your numbers with the scd4 16 pitch versus the 17 pitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Running a F115 with the PT SCD4 17p, and agree with BradM. Best prop I've found straight out of the box. The F115 turns it 5800 RPM with a WOT speed of 42 MPH. Not entirely happy with the holeshot however. Adequate, but a three blade Turbo 17p, which has been tweaked locally, does a better job out of the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wings1856 Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 Has anyone used any of the Solas props? I’m specifically talking about the four blades. Either the Titan HR or Rubex. Just trying to find more options other than the power tech. Don’t wanna spend that much money. 2003 Pathfinder 1900v Yamaha F115. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
