My 35 Mk II had about 3" between the strut and the prop. 12" is very long
and could possible contribute to vibration. I can't imagine why someone
would do that.

Good point Neil. I had to put a 3 blade prop on my 35 Mk II. A two blade
prop would get the blade tips too close to the hull (which would also cause
vibration). Shawn's boat appears to have a 2 blade prop and an extended
shaft to get the blades away from the hull. Not a good approach in my
opin
Heart & Soul has about 3 inches between the strut and the prop, she also only
has an inch or 2 between prop tips and the hull. I may wind up replacing the
prop as she is being repowered, going from the original A-bomb to a Beta 20.

Hi Shawn,
I had about 4" over hang between the cutlass bearing and the prop hub
on the 35-1. It was necessary to move the prop aft and get hull
clearance when repowering and going to a larger prop. No sense in
putting in a large engine if you can't put that horsepower into the
water effectiv

Thanks all for the good info. According to the specs, the boat has a 1"
shaft with a 3 blade bronze prop. There is a spare 2 blade elliptic with
shaft. What I am not sure about is whether this photo is with the 3 blade
or 2 blade prop. I suspect the 2 blade prop and shaft are from the previous

Shawn,
Just went outside to look at Fireball's prop /shaft. She is close to
the original arrangement that came from the factory with the Atomic (now
rebuilt 2x). She has newer replacement Martec 2 bladed folding prop
that is 1 5/8" aft of the strut with a radius that meets the recommended

Chuck, I have a swivel block with a cleat, it’s worked well for 10 years so
far. Not sure who made it but there is a small switch to disable the ratchet.
Still 2 feet of ice at the docks here, 3 ice breakers have tried to open the
bay without success. Happy spring!

Shawn, the Niagara 35 is a very solid, well built in my opinion and seaworthy
boat. Pretty roomy for a 35 of that era but you are right, the layout is not
for everybody.
I don't know your program, BUT the Niagara is painful and does terrible angles
upwind. It's just a different sailplan compare
Hi Bruno,
Yes, the Niagara 35 (newer Encore) has been on our list ever since we saw
some YT videos of a couple cruising on one - the newer layout looks ideal.
The older layout is spacious, but quite different from anything I've seen
in this size.
Just got back from viewing it, and it's been well
Thanks Don, this is great info, and I will certainly question the owner on
this if we get to that point. They've had it for 3 years and have cruised
Desolation Sound (where they must have motored quite a lot), so if there is
an issue with vibration, he would have noticed. If it comes to a sea trial
Hey there,
My 36', 1980 has a Yanmar 3QM30. I got the boat 4 years ago and the only way
I have to kill the engine is to throttle down. Has anyonre set up a stop
cable?

The 35 mkII has a lot of qualities and is fast, long waterline/ OAL makes for a
fast boat, solid hull... very stiff boat, reasonable draft, list goes on. It's
a very good design. One thing I like is the V profiled bow that slices the
waves and doesn't slam like my 33 mkII or other more recent C&
Hey Shawn,
That prop shaft looks obscenely too long. Check other boats at the yard and you
will see only an inch or two of shaft between the actual prop body and the
strut. Some space is required to allow water to exit the cutless bearing which
is how it stays cool and lubricated. I'd want to sh

Ok Rich. Your right, First offense.
The underline topic is shopping a 35-2.
Chill out.

When I had my LF38 with a 3QM30. I did try a stop cable, but it was not a cable
that locked. Pushing down on the throttle would override the stop cable.The way
this engine shuts down is by closing the throttle beyond the idle position.
From idle to shutdown is only about 1/2 inch movement on a d
