Re: Props – fixed, feathering, folding?

Hi Paul
 I have a 321 to which I fitted a Kiwi Prop about 7 years ago. Highly
recommended and very helpful service from Vectra Marine the UK
suppliers.

 – definitely sail faster with it. Also much better response in reverse.

– every year have to grease it in 4 places. Also can just paint with
normal anti-foul and it’s easy to clean up. No gears or anything to go
wrong.

– I had to get a spacer put on my gearbox coupler to make extra length
on the prop shaft to keep my Stripper rope cutter. Nobody mentioned that
as a potential issue until it came to installing the prop. So need to
know the length of the shaft used by a new prop compared to existing
prop,

 – Only one price for Kiwi props £845 + vat for all sizes.

I know various other people who have them all with no problem.

Regards
Steve
