I do not do R/C boats, but I have a propeller that works perfectly for an application I have. From looking at the forums, I think that this is a model boat propeller. The center hub is 1 inch in diameter and each fin is 1 inch long. Any help locating these propellers or equivalent would be greatly appreciated. I can provide more measurements or pictures if needed.

Looks like a GWS "EDF" (electric jet, basically) prop to me... ;)

What would the use of the setup with the propeller originally have been? Land or water? Why is there a ring around the propeller? Thank you

It is a ducted fan. For flying jets.
