Well I would expect that angle of the shaft affects direction of the prop
wash against the rudder... that would be plain common sense. I distinctltly
stated that I couldn't state one single overwhelming factor for propwash
from my experiences. I never claimed your theory to be false only that I
didn't completely agree with the premise.

May I suggest reading for content rather than confrontation.... I wrote as
plain as day "I think the biggest villain is pitch and rudder placement as
well as flow and entry/exit of the prop wash."

Now this petty, delusional, uncalled for, idiotic, uninspired statement just
blows your entire argument and casts doubt on the validity of your
intentions. If it's confrontation you want .... clarify that and I'll
accommodate you. It's not like you have the aptitude to contest me on either
a verbal or physical arena. You want to troll ... keep it on rec boats where
you have a chance of success. Around here you have little credibility and
absolutely no influence.
