PERFORMANCE SERIES - 3 BLADES
A proven performer across a wide range of Yamaha outboard-powered boat applications. Highly-polished
stainless steel and advanced blade design offer both good looks and good performance. Available in a wide
variety of sizes and pitches for Yamaha outboards between 20 and 225 horsepower, in right-hand and select
left-hand rotation.
PERFORMANCE SERIES - 4 BLADES
The four bladed design improves hole shot, acceleration, and overall “grip” and gives better performance in
rough water or with higher-positioned engine mounting.
PRO SERIES
An excellent performance-oriented choice for single-engined, high-speed boats requiring “bow lift” - such
as mid-to large-sized bass, bay and flats boats. Available for K and M series Yamaha outboards. Right-hand
rotation only.
RELIANCE SERIES (WITH SDS)
Reliance is CAD-designed to increase performance. Designed primarily for use with Yamaha’s F150 and F200 in-
line 4 outboards, it also provides excellent all-around performance. Faster at all RPM ranges and having better
anti-ventilation characteristics (grip) in most applications than Yamaha’s proven Black Stainless Steel props ,
Reliance Series props are highly-polished stainless steel, featuring impressive cast-in naming on the barrel and
excellent corrosion resistance. Now available with Yamaha’s exclusive Shift Dampener System (SDS).
SALTWATER SERIES II (WITH SDS)
A powerful choice for today’s larger offshore boats, Saltwater Series II propellers are a highly-polished, larger
diameter design. Aggressive rake and extra cupping on the blades provide superior midrange fuel efficiency,
along with excellent anti-ventilation characteristics. For offshore fishermen, that translates to longer cruising
range and better handling in rough seas. Also available with the Yamaha Shift Dampener System (SDS).
SALTWATER SERIES HS4 (WITH SDS)
A polished stainless steel propeller with 4 blades, for certain V6 4-stroke engines. Compared with the
conventional 3-bladed propeller, the 4-blade configuration has a larger blade surface area, which can
catch much more water and obtain higher thrust performance. As a result, this propeller will obtain better
acceleration and be more stable in operation under rough water. However, top speed performance is generally
slightly less than a 3-blade design. L/H rotation propellers are available.
SALTWATER SERIES XL
A premium prop designed exclusively for the V8 5.3L 4-stroke Yamaha outboards. Designed to harness the
awesome power of these engines and convert it into massive amounts of thrust, Saltwater XL propellers have
more diameter and 21% more blade area than even our largest Saltwater Series II propellers. This helps the
F350 generate up to 45% more thrust than other 250hp-class outboards, and provides large offshore boats
with plenty of power to plane quickly, as well as great acceleration and top-end speed. Available with the SDS
Shift Dampening System. (Note: deduct two inches of pitch for same or similar performance when converting
non-SDS XL propellers to SDS-equipped Saltwater Series XL propellers.)
SALTWATER SERIES XL4 AND XL4-HP (WITH SDS)
Designed exclusively for Yamaha’s V8 5.3L F350 outboard, this 4 bladed prop offers incredible thrust and quick-
on-the-plane capability, yet with quiet and smooth operation thanks to Yamaha’s unique SDS Shift Dampener
System. Two XL4 prop types are available: XL4 (15” and 17”) designed for very large, heavy offshore boats - and
the XL4-HP (22” and 24”) designed for lighter, high-performance multi-engined offshore boats.
