I do have a spare 2 blade fixed that was on my C&C 40 that you can try, I
suspect it will be a lot closer than what you are using now, and I am in the
Shelburne shipyard to get it, my shaft is 1 1/8” the replacement prop is 16 x
11, my 3 hm27 will rev to 3000.

Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions. Each and
every one is greatly appreciated. If you want to support the list
You REALLY need less pitch and/or less diameter, and maybe less blades. This is
really really hard on your engine.

Thanks for all the helpful comments and thoughts. Luna's problem is that
she cruises under power at about 5.5 kts at 1500rpm, but starts to smoke
and overheat above that. She'll do about 6kts at 1800rpm. Next time I
pull her out, I'll have a closer look at the prop.
I have the original owner's
It is not an exact science, IIRC power boaters will use loaner props and swap
them around to find the best one. It is very hard on a diesel to not be able to
hit the factory spec max RPMs, gasoline engines tolerate this much better.

One advantage of using the manufacturer's recommendation though, is that if it
isn't quite right, they will usually fix it. My three bladed Gori would not
quite get up to max RPM, and smoked a little bit, so I sent it back. They sent
it over to Denmark or wherever they make them and took a

Flexofold has gotten better. When I replaced my prop a year ago, they wanted
to know not only shaft size, but also information about my engine and
transmission. This is how they responded:

Take prop manufacturers recommendations with a grain of salt. Years ago I
requested a recommendation from Flexofold. The rep at the time was Chuck
Angle who was highly regarded. He said he didn't have a good prop

The problem that I see with this calculator is that there is no value for prop
diameter (and slip is pretty intangible, though I suspect using .10 slip might
be a good approximation for 90% efficiency).
The rule of thumb that a local propshop told me is that changing prop diameter
by 1” is a

I have 3GM30F with Kanzaki KM3P transmission and 1 inch shaft. Boat is Frers
33 so a bit different. Prop that came with the boat was Martec Eliptical

The Martec was replaced last Fall with a Flex-o-Fold (better reverse/less
vibration). They spec'd t
