Pitch is defined as the distance a propeller would move in one revolution if it were moving through a soft solid, like a screw through wood.. For example, a 21-pitch propeller would move forward 21 inches in one revolution. Think of a propeller as you would a car's axle ratio. The lower the ratio, the more pulling power from a standstill. The same is true with a prop. The lower the pitch, the better your hole-shot.
In general, no. If maximum pulling power is desired, the propeller size, particularly the pitch value, is often reduced to allow higher engine RPM (where more power is produced) at lower boat speeds. For maximum top boat speed, the optimum propeller pitch value will typically be higher. Back to Top.
