Can anyone refresh suggestions for a new prop?
I have a C&C 29 Mark I with an Atomic 4 and the original 2 blade prop. I am considering a new prop for the following reasons:
1. When leaving the dock and in reverse, the current prop creates so much prop walk that the boat is extremely difficult to handle and predict. In fact it's more an art than a science. I am thankful for rub rails. So are those in neighbouring slips. :-)
2. When returning to the dock reverse is pretty much not effective. I need to "glide" into the dock and judge (and hope) that forward momentum is not too great.
I don't expect the boat to brake like a car, but I have seen many vessels of a similiar size approach a dock and "back off" much more quickly than I can.
I am leaning to Indigo but I have seen reports of others. Any thoughts or suggestions?
