[C320-list] folding prop

[Robert E. Sloat]

Captain-Give the prop manufacturer/rep you are buying from your engine 
model, hp, transmission ratio, shaft size and any other info they need.
They recommend a specific size and pitch for your boat.  Considering the 
investment, I would not order a prop of specific size recommended by a boat 
owner unless you have an exact match to that boat.

I have an Auto Prop which I like.  The size and model were determined by the 
distributor who had sold many of these to C320 folks so he had a track 
record.  Many folks with C320s have different transmission ratios and 
different engines.
