[C38] auto prop or max prop

Sat Nov 3 13:51:23 EDT 2007

alden,
I have had a 2 blade Max prop on Macavity for 15 years and like it very 
much. My only regret is that for racing considerations I did not get the 
3 blade which gives more power in rough conditions and will stop the 
boat on a dime. I would buy another max prop again and toy with the idea 
of upgrading to the 3 blade. Just make certain you have the pitch set 
correctly by a real expert. Joe Launie, C-38 Commodore, Macavity # 365.
