We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service.

We have a Westerbeke 65 HP with a hurth 250 transmission. We put an 18x15 3 bladed sailor man prop. We get hull speed at 1800 RPM, max for the engine is 2600. I actually would have gone with a 21x18 if my shaft would have been bigger. She sails just fine for us with the 3 blades and we love the extra power going out inlets and banging into the wind...
