Outboard Prop Issue

[amkulic]

Hi,

I have a mariner 15hp outboard, approximatly a 80-90's model which I bought recently. However the guy said it only needs a new prop becase it is unbalenced....anyone know what this means?

The prop says: 9 1/4 x 10 1/2 - J

-Anyone know how much a new one would cost?

-Can I get plastic or metal?

-Also where to get one?

-Can I use it when unbalanced without damaging it?

Better still does anyone have a spare one that fits these dimentions that they wish to sell?

Thanks for any help

Is there any visible damage to the prop and do the blades all look identical?

It could be a bent prop shaft

There is a small crack in 2 of the bases of the blades. And the blades are also slightly bent.

Chuck it. Go see craig at Huett Marine @Cowan. He is a Mariner dealer and also sells aftermarket props as well.
