Based on favorable comments from this group, I've decided to order a 
Kiwi Prop feathering prop for my 1999 C320 #660 "Believe."   I have the 
Yanmar 3GM30F with Kanzaki KM2P transmission.  Here's what the Kiwi 
sales rep is recommending:

    For your engine rated  27 hp @ 3600 RPM
    with reduction ratio  2.21 :1
    that will deliver 1628 shaft rpm.
    We will recommend  16" x 20°   deg Kiwiprop
    Kiwiprop diameter at tips ~ 1/2" greater than nominal.
    Required clearance to hull 1/2" (12 mm).

Does this match Kiwi prop specs that other C320 owners have installed?  
I'm also considering ordering a spare blade.  I know it's cheaper to 
order them with the prop purchase.  Has any of you Kiwi Prop owners 
actually had to replace a blade?  Thanks!
