[C38] feathering propellers

[Charles]

Julian,
I am not suggesting this is your answer, but there is a convenient way 
to look up listserve discussions from the past 4 years. Just go to the 
Catalina38 website ( http://www.catalina38.org/ ) and select from the 
yearly archives located in the lower, left part of your screen. This 
bring you to all the discussions we have had for the year. There are 
three sorting options to select, but I would suggest the "subject" 
option. Simply scroll down the list to propellers and quickly review 
what has already been said (kind of like a "backup memory" for those of 
us who don't remember so well anymore).
However, new technology comes out all the time and what was said in the 
past might not be current! So, please take whatever course suites your 
needs as you know by now... we love to talk about our boats!
