Bruno What did they charge you for that prop?

I will be back home in two days to verify that. I ordered a Flexofold 3 blades and they recommended 15" /9". The blade area is larger and I think it is too much prop for my boat, I can't push the engine over 2800. But it is a good prop and I deal with it.

I just bought the boat and I'm pretty annoyed but sure the problem is that it's worn and needs maintenance. I'm planning on removing it and putting a simple 2 blade prop on, at least for now. It's hard to get info about the size and pitch specs. However, I found a website in BC that has a prop calculator and it gave me 15" with 9" pitch for my boat (CNC 33/2), engine and transmission. Does this sound right? Any comments?

Once it is in the water it is hard to tell unless you can dive on it. I bought a used 2 blade prop recently that is geared so that the halves are supposed to open evenly. The pins are so worn in the prop body that the gear teeth can jump one another and it gets stuck so that one blade does not open all the way. In my case the prop needs to be re-built. The short answer is that anything that causes one blade to stick will cause the problem you describe. There are other possibilities, but that is the easiest to check.

It has a clamshell-type folding propeller that, once in gear, is causing significant vibration above idle speed. What could be causing this?
