Looking for a prop recommendation

[Ryan H]

2006 SANTE 210 used primarily for surfing.

We nuked our prop a couple weeks ago and had it repaired. Re-installed and we are still getting some vibration. I thought it was beyond repair and should have just bought new from the get go. Oh well.

We usually surf with 3-4 guys and have an additional 1,000lbs of ballast.


Thanks and have a good 4th!

Ryan, what prop did you have on there before? Were you happy with it?

is a 38mph top speed ok for a signif improvement in low end tq? 20-23mph cruise ok?

maybe this can help, but i think they are missing your boat year....not sure if yours is like the 2005 or 2096

I had the factory prop and I'd be fine with 38mph top speed. We rarely open it up.

I got stuck there too. I tried to call and they were closed already. I'm almost certain the 06 210 is the same as 07.

i thought people said the 2007 to 2013 were same. i don't know for sure...

2006 was first year of rh prop rotation.

Looks like the 645 is the stock prop based on the verbiage on this page:

Scratch that. 2006 was LH rotating props

[nyryan2001]

Well i'd tell you to consider a 15x12" prop... It will be the equivalent of an engine upgrade in tq compared to what you had.

i don't know the LH prop designations... But a 15"dia 12" pitch .105 cup has been the standard for heavy ballast for about 2yrs now. Should put you right at 38-39mph top speed, but you will be 5-10 seconds faster launching from 0-23mph with full ballast. It's that big of a difference. Check to ensure you 'll have at least 1" of clearance with the larger prop from the hull.
