Fred,
Pegathy's stern goes strongly to port in reverse, not to starboard, as yours
seems to do. She does not, however, have the original v-drive, the PO had to
replace it when reverse failed in sea trials during the survey. The PO was not
happy, but I suspect he didn't have a clue it was about t
Pegathy has a two blade MaxProp. Seems to work fine, very good in reverse,
although there is a lot of prop walk. There is also vibration, but this may or
may not be the prop. I certainly would not trade it for a fixed prop.
