I'm in the process of building an e-boat and am looking for a ~19 inch
variable pitch prop along with probably the shaft and any controls that
may
be associated with it.
A friend of mine told me that Volvo makes one, but none of their dealers
seem to know anything about it.
I have been told by others that older fishing boats used to use these,
but were unable to supply a manufacturer name.
If anyone knows of a source, it would be greatly appreciated.
Luke, Maxprop, Autoprop, Martec make feathering props with adjustable
pitches. They give you a recommended pitch, you make any necessary
adjustments. Pricey, very pricey in the case of the Luke, which are
one-offs.

Was that what you were referring to?
Exactly, thanks.
Now I just have to begin saving my pennys. :-)
