[C320-list] Prop

Some changes must have been made since 2000 to the exhaust hose routing as 
in my hull 894 (2002) the transmisson ratio stamped on the transmission is 
easy to read.  I did an Autoprop prop and for my engine 3GM30F European the 
transmisson ratio was 2.21.  The Yanmar owner's manual lists 2 transmissions 
for the 3 GM30F.  Both are Kanzakis.  KM2P transmission has either a 2.21 or 
a 2.62 ratio and the KM3P has a 3.2 forward gear ratio.
