I posted a while back that I recently put a 200 Opti on my 97 PII and that it is ventilating on takeoff. It has the old 25 Trophy on it. The engine is now broke in and, even though Ive dropped engine it still ventilates. I want to try plugs but not sure if available for my Trophy. It is not a Trophy Plus. Are there plugs for this prop?

No you will have to use some other method to plug the vent holes.BCB

Dear BCB…PLEASE give me some suggestions of what to use as plugs. Thanks

We have used many things. Som eoflks have used MarineTech and just started drilling it out until they found ventilation. We have used washers on each side and riveted a steel core rivet through them sandwiching the hub between the washers.Just get creative on temporary solution to learn how much ventiliation you need. You cant hurt the propeller, so play a bit and learn what you need to do!BCB

In the “pik a nut” bins at Lowes, you will find some white plastic caps that fit perfectly in the Trophy PLUS prop vent holes. Been using them for years and they only cost about 5 cents a piece. I dont know the size of your vents as compared to the newer “plus” props but you should be able to find something that works.
