Dear all

We are changing our propeller to our 32 ft sailing boat and wondering
weather to choose folding or feathering propeller? What kind of
practical experience do you have from these feathering ones and what
are the benefits and disbenefits comparing to folding ones?

Are you competing at a high level in regattas? If not, then buy a fixed prop
and use the saved money for something else more important.

If you really want to throw money at a fancy prop, get a Brunton Autoprop. A
brilliant piece of kit that permits low drag sailing and efficient
motor-sailing.
