Looking for a used propeller about 32" dia

I have done a repower and have to change my prop. I already have extensive power curves done by the previous owner and have some recent rpm and speed runs with my existing prop and have calculations and confidence in what I need but cannot afford new so hope to stumble across a USED propeller that comes close.

LOOKING FOR: About 32-inch diameter, 20 to 22-inch pitch Left Hand. Because of the large shaft, I need a prop with about a 5-inch wide hub so I can have a new taper and keyway machined (unfortunately the shaft is metric and oversized).

I do not wish to haul out and take out the shaft, I have already taken off my old prop in the water and will replace it the water.

Re: Looking for a used propeller about 32" dia

Capt Ray there's plenty of propellers on Facebook New Orleans or San Francisco. But the 5 inch hub is the challenge. I don't think I have seen one so big on such a small prop. There's a guy in Sebastopol CA that's advertising on Facebook thousands of propellers and he could be worth contacting.
This prop below is close.
Cheers

You do not say what your old prop is, but any good prop shop can repitch a prop, even making quite dramatic changes for very little money relative to new, or even “new-to-you”.
