Abstract:
To provide a propeller for a boat propulsion apparatus, which propeller is excellent in maintainability including easy assembly and easy disassembly and reliably reduces the impact force caused by colliding with an obstacle and transmitted to the hub and the output shaft of the boat propulsion apparatus. The propeller includes: a shaft sleeve insertably and removably fixed to an output shaft of the boat propulsion apparatus; a plurality of blade components that are individually supported by the shaft sleeve and are arranged at intervals in a rotation direction of the output shaft; and a plurality of dampers disposed in such a manner that each of the plurality of dampers is disposed between adjacent two of the plurality of blade components.
