Propellers value- worth repairing

[wildmurphy]

Hi all

I have a set of props from a sea line f44. 23” I believe.

They have damage and I replaced with new at significant cost. Now swapped boats so have two random damaged props in my garage

Question is are the old one sellable, worth repairing to sell?

Does anyone know where buys them? Or should I just drive them to the scrapyard and get £50 for them if I’m lucky?

Suspect a new matched pair of props set is now the wrong side of 2K-3K.
Depending on the damage, probably worth repairing.
Depending on the pitch and taper almost certainly able to be used on other boats of a similar size and engine horse power.
Pitch fairly important , simple job to repitch, taper critical, almost impossible to find anybody prepared to retaper at a price that made economic sense.
Quoted around £150 to repitch a prop, quoted £500 to do a retaper from 1:10 to 1:16.
Only sell as pair and never ever be tempted to split them up .

I have sold large irrepairable props on ebay as decorative features for good prices (£100s)

Definitely worth repairing and/or selling on. You’ll be surprised at what a set of props can be worth. Perhaps with particular reference to props from outdrives from Volvo Penta certainly.
Yours will be from shafts I presume ? Can I ask what diameter they are ?

Hi there

They are 2 inch shaft 23x31” props.

Thanks everyone!

Put them in a classified ad on sealine forum. Open to offers.

Or ask Steel Developments if they want to buy/bid on them?

Put them FB market place - garden ornament - sold my old prop (scrap due to cavitation wear) off my Mitchell31 for £100
