Default Prather 215 props

Do you guys know if anyone has these in stock? I have checked all over the net and every place I have looked is out of stock. This is for a FF.12. What other props would you suggest for this rig . I will be using a OS .12 CV power plant.

Is this prop not to big for a .12 size engine. As I was looking at using on my .15 but have been told by my LHS that it is more suited to a .21.

On a typical boat it will be too big for a .12. Most .21's run with the Prather 215. But with a rigger the decreased water resistance allows the engine to be propped up. The 215 is 41mm in diameter.

yes p215 should work on it fine one way to modify the p215 is thin the prop making it lighter= less rotating mass= more rpm=less strain on the engine=go faster! of corse balance and sharpen!

The 215 works fine on my .12 'rigger. For speed, I use the Octura V-937/3 but it's a little harder to get going but the 215 makes it more driveable.
