Which prop would you use.............

[Bill]

I'm, going to order a new 320 soon and will be adding and Aquadrive as well as either a folding or feathering prop. I'm interested in some opinions as to the right prop to use, a folding 2 blade or feathering 2 or 3 blade. Also, I'm thinking about having an epoxy barrier coat added before the bottom is painted. One other question; 135% or 150% genoa.I'll be sailing on Puget Sound and will be mooring on freshwater Lake Union

Prop

I have a C320 and put a 3 blade feathering prop, an Autostream from Martec and love it. A C34 in my area has a 2 blade folding prop from Martec which I think might underpower the boat and not give much in reverse but he swears by it!

prop,sails and coat

Yes to: feathering and barrier coat. Headsail depends on your sailing conditions if it is generally above 10 to 12 knts I would go with a 135%....
