Hi , Looking at the performance database, I can see an entry for bf50a which i think is what you have.

Honda BF50A 1 O/B 4 Petrol 50 max rev 5500 pitch 10.00 diameter 12.00 blades 3 top speed 14 - trims Yes

I have a 20Se with the original 1998 bf75a Honda.

I don't think you will be able plane with your engine . You may need to go to 75hp or at least 60 with higher rated gears such as mariner/mercury command thrust.

I hope that helps.. Rob (new member 2022)

I need some help please.
1995 Pilot 20 with original fitted Honda 50. Can anyone tell me the original standard fitted prop size and pitch that was fitted to these engines, Even what size & pitch pilot 20 owners are fitting to your Honda 50 nowadays?
Thank you. Would appreciate any comments.
