Hi Bruce,
I have a Martec folder on my boat (34+ also called 34/36) which is your boat's
little sister.
We've been using it for 3 seasons and it's world of difference in sailing speed

Best of luck / email me if you need more details.

Bruce;
My 38, Imzadi, came with a 16x10 ½ RH Martec prop when I bought her in 2003.
16x10 ½ was the prop recommended for my 15,000lb boat with a 36hp engine and
Rodney is correct, of course. But also consider that some C&C models come
with different gear ratios for the same boat. Get the ratio off the
gearbox name plate before ordering a prop. My PO didn't do that and I got
a boat with the wrong prop.

The engine and gear ratio, together with the engine power, are critical for any
propeller sizing.
When choosing an engine &/or propeller for your boat, it is important to
consider the effect of the gearbox ratio on the propeller. Most marine diesel
engines have a reduction gearbox, which makes t

My two cents,
I had the Martec Folding Eliptic on our boat from 2002 to 2007. I had a few
close calls when it wouldn't open. These may have been my inexperience with a
large boat. It seemed like I needed to put it in reverse at four boat lengths
from the dock to get it to stop reliably in my sl

I have to provide the dissenting opinion on the Martec prop. Many years

in reverse. Being not geared, one of the blades did not open. The

My LF38 came with a 2 blade Martec Eliptec (LH18DX14P-3 1-1/8), and I agree
with others that the performance is surprising good. Yes I often
forget/neglect to align the blades, and I have experienced the boat shake on a
rare occasions. Performance wise, forward to hull speed is no problem in

Overall, I’m pleased with this upgrade.
