Thank you Rob. The primary use of my boat is club racing on a relatively small lake. Generally I only motor ten minutes to get out of the marina, and ten minutes to get back in, a couple times a week. No cruising, no punching through chop. For me right now the most important thing is making the boat as fast as possible - minimizing weight, minimizing drag, maximizing (sail) power, etc. My competitors in my PHRF fleet all have folding props, so I need to level that playing field :)

The best all around prop for the 30MI with an A-4. http://www.atomic4.com/propeller.html If you are a hard core racer, this might not be the prop for you. Otherwise, this will yield easier docking, more punch through a chop, higher RPM (good for the engine in many ways), higher causing speed, all while still providing reduced drag under sail. Sorry if that sounds like a sales pitch but I was so impressed by that little prop that I talk it up every chance I get. Just be very careful about using it without a zinc. They tell you that if you go zinc less there will be no barnacle growth on the prop. If you end up in a 'hot' marina the prop will act as your zinc...they replaced my prop but now they have more detailed warranty with regards to this.
