Skipping the reasons why I need to do this... I'm going to put the propeller that came with my E27 when I had the A-4 back on temporarily so I can sail my boat and enjoy it given that it's been worked on more than sailed over many months. (Ok, I had put on a folding prop but that did not work out, story for another time). I don't have the original nuts to secure the prop. I'm looking to quick haul Southpaw and hopefully put this prop on quickly. So I need to make sure I the right parts.
I've been logging as much information about my boat as I can as I learn things. I do not know all the dimensions related to my prop shaft. Shaft diameter is 3/4". I don't know the diameter at the threads for threads/inch . A little research done suggests that I need a "75hexnut" and a "75 jam nut" which I believe translates to a size of 1/2" - 13 threads/in. Does this make sense to you all? Or is this something I need to eyeball once hauled. Thanks, as always.
