I have dissassembled my max props to change
seals on
YANMAR SD31 saildrives and
lost the
pitch information.
Can any one advise me on which
pitch to select: 16°, 18°, .....24° ???
My
PRIVILEGE 435, total tonnage about 12 metric tons, waterline 43 feet, is fitted with 2
YANMAR 3JH3E , 39 HP at 3000 rev/minutes.
Radius of PAXPROPS 220 mm.
Old models fitted in 1999: So no way to adjust pitch underwater. I want to avoid multiple haul outs and trial & errors
Before I disasssembled the props
Max speed 9 knots
Used to
cruise on windless ,flat
water at 5 knots on a
single engine at 2000
revs.
Any advices from
PRIVILEGE 435 cats or similar catamarans welcome !
