[C38] three blade fixed propeller

[empty]

That's in a calm no wind sea (which, of course, is the only time we sailors
use the engine ), but I bet you sail faster than me!!!!!! The strength of
the stern kick in reverse took a little getting used to. I believe that is
not much of a problem with the folding prop.
