OK it looks like I'm good to go (knock on wood) ....
On my '79 C&C 27 MkIII the Atomic 4 is rebuilt and converted to fresh water
cooling .... the heat exchanger that failed and raw water pump that
self-destructed on the maiden voyage from the mech's dock to my slip have
been replaced (& a high-temp and low oil-pressure alarm are installed
now!!) Got some wiring clean-up to do.
Question is, in preparation for a haul-out later this fall / winter, I'm
looking at replacing the original 11x7 2-blade prop with something that
hopefully 1) has no more drag under sail and 2) minimizes the paddlewheel
effect when going astern. What's suggested? What are people using that
does or doesn't work? Moyer's FAQ's suggest the Indigo, the CDI PerfectPitch
or the Michigan Wheel 10x6 3-blade (but that was written 10 years ago).
