I think the VHF is more likely to be put to good use than the cheese.

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.

RB

well, I wanted a 3 blade feathering, but what the hay, send me the 2 blader.
