My boat has an alpha one drive, I bought a prop on the internet, and it turns out it has a left hand rotation. Am I screwed is there anything I can do, or do I just need to sell it.

I don't think there's anything you can do.Might want to sell it.

You could always buy a counter rotating outdrive for the prop! :p

Makes you wonder if the last guy did the same thing and that's why it was for sale!

Just uhh - always drive it in reverse as opposed to forward, yea thats it, should work like a charm. Planing may be alittle rough though :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Or even better yet :D Switch the +/- on the starter, make a cam and crank change, change your distributor wiring, and run the motor backwards - BTW that is how they do it in boats with twin motors - each motor spins in a different direction.
