Same reason I ditched mine. For cruising I am towing a 12 foot RIB anyway, so the minor drag reduction is not worth the semi-usable reverse. I got tired of running aground gently and still being trapped if I could not get off by going forward. If I ever race seriously again I'll get a max-prop or similar. Also note that if just one blade comes out on a folding prop it can do damage including shaking the strut loose.
