Turning Point Hustler® - Left Hand - Aluminum Propeller - LE-1417-4L - 4-Blade - 14.5" x 17 Pitch

The Turning Point Hustler Left Hand Aluminum Propeller (LE-1417-4L) is a four-blade marine propeller engineered for performance across a wide range of outboard and jet drive motors from 90 to 300+ horsepower. This 14.5-inch diameter propeller with 17-pitch specifications delivers the combination of hole-shot acceleration and top-end speed that serious anglers and recreational boaters demand on freshwater and saltwater applications alike.

The Hustler's defining innovation is its dual-geometry blade design—two different blade shapes working within the same four-blade platform. This engineering approach optimizes blade loading across the RPM curve, translating to more responsive acceleration off the dock and smoother cruise characteristics at sustained speeds. The 14.5" x 17 pitch configuration provides a balanced profile: the 17-pitch element ensures efficient RPM rise and fuel economy, while the 14.5-inch diameter generates substantial thrust for heavier displacement boats or applications requiring added pulling power. Aluminum construction keeps weight manageable at 6.9 lbs, reducing rotating mass and strain on lower-unit bearings compared to heavier steel alternatives.

Left-hand rotation specifications are critical for correct engine direction—the LE-1417-4L is engineered specifically for engines configured with counter-clockwise propeller rotation when viewed from behind the boat. This propeller suits weekend fishermen running center-console or open-deck layouts, tournament competitors optimizing hole-shot on shallow-water launches, and charter operators managing high-hour engine duty in salt-air environments. The aluminum blade material offers corrosion resistance better than bare steel while remaining cost-effective for replacement-interval applications typical in active-use commercial and recreational fleets.
