It looks like I have the original prop that came with my boat - a 2-blade Michigan Sailor 13 RH 8 with a stamp of "6 75" on it. It's in good shape, performance is fine in fwd, no issues with drag during sailing, but it's unpredictable in reverse.

I'm also looking to change, as I usually have a brisk cross-wind backing out of my slip. I like the idea of the 3-blade Maxprop for better performance in reverse, but its a pricey item. Need to look into the Martec props in more detail and continue to follow this thread. I'll make a call after this season and install something different. Thanks to all for the commentary - very helpful.
