[C320-list] Need a 2-blade prop

[Rich Allen]

To Bruce's point, not all 320's came with the same prop.  We have a
Westerbeke, which was fitted with a 15R10.  In my opinion, the boat was
under-propped, and we replaced it with a folding Gori 3-blade (we like it).
Nevertheless, the original prop is available if someone wants it.
