The Solas Amita 3 in 13.5x14 is a classic propeller model aimed at mid-range outboards and even some sterndrives (Alpha-style) in the 40 to 140 HP range. With a 13.5″ diameter and 14″ pitch, this prop offers a mix of confident low-end pull and solid top-end speed, making it a popular choice for various applications – from fishing and cruising boats to lightweight sporty runabouts. Cast in aluminum using Solas’s precision techniques, the propeller is built to withstand impacts with floating debris and resist corrosion in saltwater environments.
The broad blade profile of this 14″ pitch model is optimized for modern 4-stroke engines, which have higher torque at lower RPM. The result is strong grip on acceleration – your boat jumps on plane quickly, even when towing water toys or carrying a significant load. Once on plane, the Solas Amita 3 13.5x14 maintains a steady speed and good fuel efficiency. During maneuvers, the prop responds predictably, contributing to easy handling for both novice and experienced operators.
Recommended Uses and Applications:
- Suitable for a wide range of 5–7+ m boats – from general family runabouts to workboats – running Mercury/Mariner or Honda engines between 50 and 100 HP (and up to 140 HP on lighter vessels).
- Recommended for water sports (e.g. tubing, wakeboarding) with ~90-115 HP engines – the 14″ pitch provides the punchy acceleration needed to pull riders up, without overloading the motor.
- Excellent for heavy inflatable RIBs or utility skiffs where loads vary – the Solas 13.5x14 offers flexibility and steady thrust under different weight conditions.
- A practical spare prop for any craft with a 15-spline shaft – its broad compatibility means it can be deployed on numerous makes and models when a quick replacement is necessary.
