Hi Ron, the original folding 2 blade on my 29mk2 was 14"D and 8" pitch. Upgrade to Gori prop is 15" and 10" pitch. Magic will do a bit over 6 knots at 2000 rpm. Cheers, Bruce. Sent from my iPad ___ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album. Plea

I have an older, three blade, CD feathering prop on my 29-2. The boat will motor at 6 to 6.5 knots at 2800 RPM under most conditions. I usually run at 2600 RPM with a boat speed of ~ 6 knots. Last summer when trying to re-enter Frenchmans Bay with a headwind of 25 to 35 knots and a moderate cho

The correct setting will allow your engine to reach maximum rpm (Nigel Calder says at least 90% of rated speed), under load (in gear) at full throttle. If you can't reach max rpm, you're over pitched. If you can run faster than max rpm, you're under pitched. Normal run speed is about eighty perc

Generally I would say that you should worry less about max boat speed and more about matching max rpm to full load. You should reach max rated rpm and not blow black smoke. All of this assumes a clean prop and bottom. Josh Muckley S/V Sea Hawk On Jan 3, 2015 3:43 PM, "Ron Ander via CnC-List" wr

I have a Vari Profile adjustable pitch feathering propeller. I am definitely in need of an adjustment in the forward position as I am only able to motor at about 5 knots on flat waters at about 2300 rpm. In one particularly strong blow I was unable to make any headway into the wind and waves. I
