Hello all.
I recently bought a new Beta Marine 35 saildrive engine.
i am now in need of a new propeller.
I have a 43ft 'Gitana 43 ' sailboat.
There seem as many propellers as there are opinions on propellers.
However I am seeking your opinions now!
questions, 2 or 3 blade
fixed or folding (almost certainly folding)
supplier?
Type/pitch?
Thoughts on how to come up with the answers to the above questions also very welcome!
Many thanks in advance to you all.
Fair winds.
James

Hi Daria,
Nonplussed is such a great word. I look forward to hearing about your researches. Ours is 4 years old and I had not heard about any claim of “no prop walk” and it would not be a selling point for me. I over-pitch a little and will do a little more. I had not heard about it affecting prop walk, so that may contribute some to what I experience.
I would call Chris at Darglow. I would except I am no longer in the UK. I found him very knowledgeable about props and especially Max Props.
My best, Dick
