My 2016 505 #123 was delivered with a 3 blade Flex O Fold prop. I'm going to have it serviced shortly, and the shop asked me if I knew the model number. There's a fair amount of play in it. Anyone know the model number for the '16 505's, with the 3 blade folding Flex O Fold prop? My dealer had no idea, I could find no documentation aboard, and Flex O Fold is closed til August. Further, any advice on dialing it in so I can achieve more than 2750 RPMs would also be helpful. I think these engines should run closer to 3,000 RPMs WOT and I think mine was never set up properly. Thanks. Kipwrite ------------- Kipwrite |

You should be able to see the model number on the prop. Admittedly if its in the water its more difficult, but if you have a picture. This is from my 575

My 505 was originally delivered with a fixed prop, and I replaced it with a Flexofold. In discussing this with Flexofold they suggested the 3-bl. SD hub, M16x2 nut with the 20x13-3 L bladeset. ------------- 2016 Hanse 505 #120 |
