[C320-list] Need three blade prop

[frpoint at earthlink.net]

Hi Pat, 
The fixed prop in on for now. Fortunately a diver found the prop in about 20
min. The prop is now cleaned up and ready to be reinstalled...just in time
for the Farallon race. It looks like the shaft key sheered in half, as both
pieces were still in the prop body, weird. I'll be glad to have the folding
prop back on as the fixed prop is hard to live with after 6 yrs of a folding
prop. The most noticeable aspect of the Gori is a more powerful reverse.
>From now on I'll remove the prop every 2 years for a cleaning and
inspection, at the same time as the bottom paint.

Mike
EK 769

OK Mike

EK's back in the slip, so is it the Gorie, a new Kiwi, or can we race you
back to the slip evens up?  We want the next episode of the saga.

She's looking great.  Glad to see you back in the water.
