Thumbs down help with propeller size

It appears the 1999 214 D Julbilee I purchased may have had the propeller changed. Does anyone know the correct size of the original recommended propeller?

    Just curious but what makes you think it was changed? And what (diam/pitch/# of blades/material/make) is on it now?

    The boat was donted to a charitable organization and I purchased it from them. The prop on it was aluminum and there was another prop inside the boat. It may be the last owner put a stainless steel prop on it and it and while in storage someone swaped it out for another alum...
    Just trying to figure out what size stainless steel to put on it. Just like to know wat was the standard that came with this model?

    Unfortunately there was no "standard" prop. I would suggest putting the boat in the water & recording how it performs at WOT (top speed & rpms at top speed) then providing us with that info along with the info on the prop used. It will also help to know primarily what you will use the boat for (cruising/pulling tubers or wakeboarders etc). We can then make a reasonably good suggestion on what you might need.
