[C320-list] Regatta Tech Sessions - a summary.

[J]

So there are 3 conclusions here. First, the engine should be able to turn 
3600 RPM at hull speed regardless of which prop is used. Second, 2800 RPM is 
a good cruising speed assuming the prop is pitched correctly. Third, 
Autoprops are not pitched correctly and are not adjustable.
