I would be shocked but thrilled if a Torqeedo prop fit any other trolling motor. I'm assuming someone (possibly with good 3-D printer skills??) will need to come up with a slick way to adapt them.
But I'd really like to see what happens if you do (does it burn up the motor, or just double the performance?).

I am running the Minn Kota Endura Max 45 that they claim can run up to 5 times longer the the regular Minn Kota motors. PWM is what I think the control design was called. I was not awareTorqeedo made a prop that would fit a Minn Kota ! Does it produce more speed with lower amp draw? That is what I am looking for now :-) Time to go search for this propeller :-)

I think I better stick with DC only and not try to go both ways. I looked at your solar canoe and it looks really cool. Are you using the Minn Kota with the digital maximiser " battery management system" ?Have you tried installing the Torqeedo prop on your motor, that would seem to be the perfect setup. The Torqeedo travel prop is as the Germans are fond of saying "Superior Technology".Thanks for all the imput.
