Default Variable Pitch Props


wrote in message

Hi
What exactly are you looking for --- an adjuatable pitch prop. or a
variable pitch prop, going forth and reverse as in old fishing boats ?


Something like that with ~19" blades would be perfect.

Both cases you are to put down quite a sum, the adjust pitch are rare
and expensive the fishing boat types are usealy only two blades and


Two blades would work fine.

only few manufactores make these and only to fit onto their own motors
, if 3 blades they cost more than 3 gearboxes all together and you
still need the piece to do the pitch move. ------ what is an e-boat ?


I'm converting a 38' ketch from a diesel engine to an electric boat using
twin inline eteks.
