Rich,   The prop works well in reverse. The pitch in reverse is also adjustable, and is set for a lot more power than it is in forward. Port prop walk is about the same as I had with the 2 blade Martec I had. I can stop the boat in a very short distance, which makes docking in a strong cross wind much easier.

  Thanks,

    3 seasons ago I bought a 3 blade KIWI prop. Made in Asutralia.(surprise surprise)It is a full feathering prop, unlike the Max prop. Pitch is adjustable in the water. The price is 1/2 the Max Prop and I figured if it was good enough for the VOLVO 50's, is was good enough for me. I have been happy with the prop.

    Alden

    I went with the three blade max prop as well and am happy with it, Its nice going straight in reverse although it does take a few seconds for it start working in reverse, At the beginning I do notice a little prop walk but once it kicks in its fine.   Three blade is nice for the extra power going through wind, waves and current.   PYI is a great company to work with fantastic customer service.

    So it is time for me to get rid of my two bladed fixed prop. Does any
    one out In Catalina 38 land have any comments on a auto prop or max
    prop? Which one is better or are they about the same in performance? I
    have a friend that has a auto prop for sale does any one know the part
    number on the one that goes on our boat? Also what is the pros and cons
    to both?

      Paul, Thom has stated the plight of the middleclass in this country
    so much better than I could.  Sure, you know some middleclass folks who
    are doing pretty well.  I do also.  However, taken as a whole, the
    middleclass is not doing so well.  Read this and then let me know what
    you would do about it.

      Bill


      Thom's blog
      Who Does our Economy Serve?
      Ed Luce with The Financial Times' has documented the "crisis of
    middle-class America." He notes the "median wage stagnation" that has
    hit most American families, and writes, "the annual incomes of the
    bottom 90 per cent of US families have been essentially flat since
    1973....That means most Americans have been treading water for more than
    a generation." At the same time, the Financial Times notes, America's
    CEOs have seen their compensation go up over a hundredfold. The result
    is a level of inequality not seen in this country since 1929, and the
    conversion of the middle class of 1940 to 1980, into the terrified
    working poor of the post Reaganomics era, the vast majority of whom live
    paycheck to paycheck, with no significant savings, and only a job loss
    and a few weeks from being homeless and on the streets.

      The new GDP report shows our economic growth slowed to a 2.4 percent
    rate in the second quarter, too slow to put Americans back to work. Much
    more worrisome are details in this report pointing to a continued
    slowdown this year. According to a recent survey by the Employee Benefit
    Research Institute, workers are cashing in their retirement plans just
    to stay afloat. Their grim statistics show the percentage of American
    workers who have less than $10,000 in savings grew to 43 percent in
    2010. Almost 25% of all workers have postponed their planned retirement
    in the past year. A CareerBuilder.com survey reports that 61 percent of
    workers are now living paycheck to paycheck, as compared to 43 percent
    in 2007. Meanwhile, Bankers at the big Wall Street banks wrapped up
    their best month in a year. This begs a question. Economic activity
    happens in America because government authorizes corporations and gives
    substantial benefits and limitations of liability to those few
    individual
    s who own most of corporate America. Thus the question: Is this economy
    our Government has created here to serve the wealthy people who own it,
    or did we bring it into being and do we support and maintain it so it
    can benefit average working people, and thus Democracy?
