My next project will be powered by a 32 HP jet ski engine. At this point it looks like the prop will be 11 inche LH, with the pitch to be determined later. Would I need a custom prop, or is this size and rotation common enough to find? BTW, the motorcycle powered hydro is STILL waiting for the machine shop to finish the jack shaft.:(

Good Luck

What would those props fit? I have a 7.25 lefty for my hydro, but I'm looking for an 11 incher now for a new project.

I misread the size as pitch, 11" dia is big for 32hp will it have a reduction? Inboard props might be found that size.

My son's boat has a 28hp outboard and an 11/17 is called for. I know the pitch is for a reduction geared outboard and the inboard will be straight drive so I think an 11 inch with less pitch run in surface drive will posibly work.

There's a video and write on this site concerning a project such as this: A jet ski converted to inboard drive.

Somebody has to remember that posting. Was a really neat project.
