Richard:
Many C&C models have the prop shaft angled approx. 6 degrees to
port....mine does....it allows you to remove the prop shaft without
dropping the rudder, if you ever had to.
Some say, with a clockwise rotating prop, it helps with the forward prop
walk to keep your wheel/rudder balanced.
A clockwise rotating prop with an angled prop shaft to port will
accentuate prop walk in reverse.

Reason depends on who you ask. For right hand prop, the offset to
port will reduce prop walk in reverse.

I was looking at a 1981 34 today and noticed that the prop shaft
was slightly angled off the center line towards the port side. Is
that by design to counteract prop walk?
