[C320-list] Folding props

[Lachance, Michael B (ISD, IT)]

After polishing, my 3 blade will go on the wall of my son's nautical theme bedroom, right next to the old fixed 2 blade. 

New sails and adjustable backstay were last year's upgrades. This year its a folding prop and adjustable jib cars.

Thanks, but my stock 2 blade that was installed when the boat was
delivered 11 years ago seems to work great.  Are you giving away the old
3 blade?

Hi Rod,

Would you please forward that Word Doc. to me also.  And Adam, I'm
planning on buying a folding/feathering prop at the Chicago Strictly
Sailing Show and for the price of shipping you can have my old 3 blade
prop.
