Good evening,
I have a 1980
Pearson 40. I recently acquired it, and got no paperwork of any sort for the mechanical end. I have a PYI
wheel that I took off. The owner of the yard where she is up
on the hard, told me I should throw it away... Two days later, I realize he's a bit daft. But, I didn't pay attention to anything when I took it off.
So.. now I want to send it back to PYI to be reconditioned. Problem is I don't know the
pitch settings or the shaft rotation direction. Heres what I know.
I have a
Westerbeke 44B with a Newage
transmission pushing a Walter RV-10 v-drive. 2 Bladed Max-prop. The
westerbeke manual says that
motor should be pushing a 17in prop with a
pitch of 11.
That sound right? what about rotation direction?
