Super Jet is this a stock prop?

Ill start with introducing myself, my name is Russ I live in seattle and I picked up my first Stand up a month ago. Its a Stock 1993 650 SJ.
This site seems great, Iv learned a lot just searching around. Have ridden stand ups a bit before but now that I own one I have been riding a few times a week and love it.
I am curious if this is a stock prop, and also if it needs to be replaced. It seems to be a little chipped up, but I don't know if its bad enough where it could cause some kind of issue. I'm planning on putting a 701 in it this winter and a few other things including a new prop if I don't need to do that now. Any advice would be great!

It is a stock prop. Does it need to be replaced? No. Looks rideable. The stock prop is apparently pretty horrible. Replace at your earliest convenience. I put a 13/17 Solas concord in my SN awhile ago.
 
Thanks is guys, looks like I'm in the market for a new prop. Is it difficult to switch out? I have tools but from what I understand you need a few specialty tools for that job.

Your going to need the 'impeller removal' tool and the coupler that goes on the ends of the driveshaft to hold it still. Think roughly $20 each. Righty loosie leftie tightie with impeller.
