With the amount of current in and around Beaufort, SC, and the fact that we're doing more cruising than racing now, we decided to say goodbye to our Martec 2-blade folding propeller. It was hard to do, since it only had 2 seasons on it, but it just wasn't matched properly to the Yanmar 2QM20 engine to provide enough thrust. We bought a Michigan Wheel Corporation 3-blade fixed 15R12. This has to be one of the nicest propellers I've seen fresh out of the box. The quality control sheets they sent along with it proved how tight their tolerances are. Can't wait to get Morning View launched and see what this new prop can do!
