Scotty,

As a suggestion, forget about the 3-Bladed Prop. for your boat. A
2-blade folding is really all your boat can really handle. That 3-Blade
will make backing in anything but a circle impossible.

Leave the three Blades to the crab crushers. Your boat doesn't have
enough wetted surface.

Why? ...... Prop walk???

I've got a two bladed folding prop which sits in the garage because it
really wasn't much use. It doesn't have any "grip" and it won't push the
boat along at more than 4 kts in any sort of chop.

Before reading your post, I had assumed that a three bladed folding prop
would be much better.

No, it's caused by the dark side of the force.
Really, Donal. You're such an idiot!

Either you have the wrong prop or you don't savy your engine's power curve.
Not surprising on either count.

Thanks Bob, but I'll wait for OT to comment before I attempt to come to a
conclusion.

Fed-Ex say that they never heard of Plowville.

Can you give them directions?

Yes, I can. Leave' Bird In Hand' and go towards 'Intercourse', which is
near 'Paradise', follow through till you come to 'Blue Ball' head East 9
miles and turn left. Look for the 5th barn on the right.

The Fed-ex rep says that their new driver refuses to go near the place.
Apparently, the last driver who made a delivery, hasn't spoken a word
since - and trembles in fear whenever he sees a sheepskin coat like the one
that he used to wear!

Out of Baltimore just follow the trail of chicken bones from Steve's house.
