My surveyor pointed out that if you place a shaft zinc FORWARD of the
cutlass bearing, coupler failure will NOT result in a big hole in your
boat. I see them AFT all the time walking boatyards after haulout..

I have a 2 blade MaxProp which feathers rather than folds, but I also had a
vibration problem. My mechanic suggested that the length of shaft from the
strut to the prop was to long. He extended the key slot at the front of the
shaft by about 2" and drilled new dimples for the set screws. It got

Yes! That was me! I really like the crew going overboard at the end.
That kind of boat loyalty is hard to cultivate. :)

Touche's slip is to port when approaching. I approach slowly about a half

the stationary boats to determine the wind. I've looked at the water on
the pilings for any current.

Make sure it's the prop. I threw a ton of money at similar symptoms before
I had issues with my 2 blade Martec though not as bad as you describe. I
would open with a clunk, sometimes stick when opening, and have some bad
vibrations. A surveyor informed me it should be be rebuilt, which is in the
works. I replaced it with a 3 blade Campbell Sailer prop, which I'm happy

Hey guys, with all of the discussion on props it
This happened to me also. Your prop is closing too tightly. There needs to
be some space between the blades when they close. The edges at the pin have
worn and need to have material added so that the blades do not fold
completely. More than likely the opposite is also occurring where the
blades are
We've lived with a Martel two bladed folding prop forever. Occasionally one
blade will not open but putting it in reverse and back into forward has always
worked for us. Each time we haul out (once every two or three years here in the
Northwest) we remove the blades and thoroughly clean and poli
Hey guys, with all of the discussion on props it reminded me that I'm
having an issue with my 2 blade folding prop. Pretty sure it's the Martec
that you all are mentioning.
I continue to have issues with one blade not opening after we've been out
sailing. Once we drop the sails and go to engage th
