Bruce, 
We're looking to put a feathering prop on our C320 (can't wait to get
the fixed 3 blade off the boat). I'd be interested in getting the specs
on the prop from you. I'm also in Sydney and recently got a price for a
Sea Hawk from Melbourne. Your price for the Kiwi sounds good.

Looking out the office window it looks like a nice day to be out on the
boat!

Cheers

I have just had a short 1 hour 15 minute trip on our new C320 with it's
new 
Kiwi Feathering Propeller (under Motor only, boom and many other items
still 
to be installed).

In forward the propulsion was impressive. In reverse it was very
positive 
with spot on steering ... nil prop walk and lots of power!

One of the Catalina workers (Australia) volunteered the advice that the
KFP 
was outstanding (compared to the factory fitted 3 bladed prop,
particulary 
in reverse).
This was good to hear as I have to justify the AU$1995.00 I spent. 
(AU$1975+$20 delivery)

It is 1 to 2 weeks away before the Catalina Australia crew finish off
the 
commissioning on Fantastic Lady.
Then we will test the Kiwi Feathering Prop under sail ... hope and trust
the 
results will be as positive then.
In Australia we pay about US$150 more for a Kiwi Feathering Prop the USA

customers! (Thanks to the Australian Value Added Tax). Seems crazy with
NZ 
so close to Oz.

Happy Sailing
