The original prop was a 2 blade

15" * 15" ...For me it was like having a brick spinning down there..lots of vibration. went to a fixed sailor style 15" * 11" pitch three blade. MUCH smoother.

My '83

had a 2 blade 15X12. I believe mine is a fairly late 1983 as it has the small mast step, and a Yanmar.

Don't think a fixed prop pitch has much in common!

Mike: I do not think that a fixed 2 or 3 blade fixed prop has much in common with a feathering prop. I suggest you contact the mfg of the prop and get their specs.

Same as Richard

My '83 H34 has the original prop, a 15 x 12 two blade right hand throw behind a Yanmar 3GM30-F. Follow Fred's advice to set up your Maxi. S/V Intrepid H34 #113
