Identify this prop?

A bit of a conundrum..... I thought this boat came with a Max Prop ..... but it looks like there's a prop nut on the end of the shaft .... which wouldn't be the case for a max prop as the nut would be hidden inside the hub and a conical anode would be installed with 3 bolts.

Any help would be appreciated in attempting to identify what folding prop (3 blade 17in diameter) and the prop nut / anode type...

Thanks!

Not very good pictures but it does look like an old style max prop that had a prop nut fitted.

Thanks for the response.

The shaft doesn't go all the way thru, so how the heck would the prop nut be installed aft of the prop ????

Maybe that’s an adapter that’s been integrated with the end cap where the usual maxprop anode is held on with allen screws, not the propshaft nut at all.
