Check out this thread. Granted the Skeeter is a bit bigger, but that 17 might be the correct pitch after all. Stainless or aluminum?

Staying with alum for now, wonder if your 17 will fit a merc to try it before I buy. To bad you wasn't closer.

Ya know I was wondering the same thing, it might, but my guess is the hub splines might be different? Anybody know if a Suzi 17 pitch prop will fit on a merc spline?
