[C320-list] Kiwi Feathering Prop

[Kirk McCullough]

That's the price I paid to the Kiwi agent in  Vancouver, he delivered it to
my boat in PT. Roberts WA, directly from NZ. 

With the Cdn dollar now at par or higher with the US dollar the Kiwi is even
cheaper for Canadian sailors. It's definitely good value and a good
performer.

BTW, I didn't get the attachments.

Attached are 4 jpeg files on the Kiwi Prop I have re-installed this month.
I have owned it for over a year now and believe it to be good value for
money, and much superior to the fixed 3 blade prop.
The last I heard was they cost US$1,250.00 plus delivery, from a Vancouver
importer.
You will notice I used Prop Speed antifoul. Not sure I will
again...primarily due to the very high cost (Aust$98).

hope this helps
