Max Prop 2 Blade Classic 1" shaft

I have a Max Prop Classic Folding 2 Blade, 16" for a 1" shaft. Adjustable pitch and instructions included. Kept as a spare and sold the boat so I no longer need. In great shape. You may want to get blades sharpened at your local prop shop but everything else is in perfect condition. Recently serviced and cleaned. I just posted on eBay but for the CF I will sell for $500 plus shipping from 98087.

Max Props are feathering props, not folding.

Re: Max Prop 2 Blade Classic 1" shaft

I wonder why on the Manual it says "2 Blade Classic Folding Prop." Better call PYI and Maxprop and tell them they are engineering incorrect and that CF is going to hunt them down and curse their name for putting folding and not feathering... How dumb can they be.

Have you looked at the manual that you posted a picture of on eBay?

Clearly states "PATENTED AUTOMATIC FEATHERING PROPELLER" at the top.

Re: Max Prop 2 Blade Classic 1" shaft

FYI for anybody interested in this prop (which appears to be in great condition, BTW)- as it is an older model Max Prop, installing it requires drilling the threaded end of the prop shaft crossways to accept the pin that secures the prop nut, and you better be friggin' accurate when you do it. Caveat emptor.
