prop choices

Please have a look for cambell sailorprops they work great and are designed for a minimum drag.I dont know wether it matters to you but here in canada they are much much cheaper but excellent quality and performance.they are also rated highly by practical sailor.If you need more info email and i will see where the closest dealer to you is ,this info is easy because they are made here in b.c.
