GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS, PLEASE RESPOND WITH ANY HELPFULL INFO ON DEPTH OF PROPELLOR ON THE COLUMBIA 28. ON A RECENT CLEANING EXPEDITION OF MY PROP I FOUND THAT THAT THE TIP WHEN VERTICAL CLOSEST TO THE AIR WAS ONLY 8 TO NINE INCHES UNDER WATER. IS THIS STANDARD, OR HAS AN ADJUSTMENT BEEN MADE IN ORDER TO FACILITATE THE UNIVERSAL 4. ALSO THE PROP IS APP. 12 INCHES IN LENGTH AND APP. 41/2 INCHES WIDE AT WIDEST. ARE THERE ORIGINAL SPECS.? THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN DRIVING INTO THE WIND WHILE SINGLE HANDING OR LIGHT CREW, THE WAVE ACTION IS LEAVEING ME WITH LITTLE "BITE" OR TRACTION. WHAT TO DO? ....ALSO IN LAST HARD OUTING I NOTICED A GOOD BIT OF PLAY IN THE RUDDER POST. IS THEIR A BUSHING AND OR BEARINGS THAT NEED ATTENTION? ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. KRIS-2ND YEAR COLUMBIA CONVERT
