Prop nut Torque/size?

Registered
It should be 1 1/16". I have never torque a prop down, just snug it up good & hit the clench washer tabs. I have never lost a prop yet. I would think if it was torqued tight, the thrust washer would bind on the shaft. Just my .02....

Your right! manual says 55 ft/lbs MINIMUM. Ive got one of the earliest Bravo operating booklets that says 75 and thats what Ive always done. Im sure 55 would be fine. Ive never broken a shaft or had a prop loosen. I have wiped out quite a few thrust washers.
