Love the MaxProp for reliable power in both forward and reverse. 
A Martec Eliptic came with my boat and is reputed to have less drag but it 
would close when coasting along in neutral and a burst was needed to open it up 
for braking or thrusting forward. It also lost power when pushing thru chop. 

The MaxProp is a good design, it's reliable and popular, but unchanged since 
1972. Having assembled one, setting the pitch, and locking six cap screws with 
cotter keys, it could definitely be improved. 

There are other choices, and I'd spend the time and research all brands, before 
settling on one.

Gary, 

My Martec does fine in reverse, I just have to run the rpms up to about 
3,000 for it to respond. Once I get some sternway, everything is fine. It 
certainly doesn't back down like a solid prop, but I love the low drag 
properties.

My 30-1 with a 2QM15 came with a 13.5 x 9 fixed prop. The Martec props are 
not noted for good thrust in reverse.

I have just put a 2gm20F 18 hp 
taking out a 2GM 13hp. 
I have a Prop15Dx9P2 mertec folding prop. It has little to no reverst 
and very little thrust foward? What is a good choice for a 2 ot 3 
fixed blade prop for a 1981 C&C 30 MK1 with a 2gm20F and a kanzai 
KM2P. 
Thanks for your help
