I would say that if there is prop walk, it is really pronounced in the kayaks and canoes.

Thanks, Gary:) A little understanding goes a long way. I’m off kayaking for the weekend. Big switch from the LF38. Not much prop walk and not much room for beer either. Hmmmm….

You should note that on the 29-2 the prop is offset from the center line of the hull and it is located to the port side of the small skeg leading into the rudder. The combined downward angle of the prop shaft PLUS the angle towards the port side of the hull is likely to worsen prop walk as compared to a prop located on the center line of the hull Fair Winds, Bob Hickson, P.
