3-Blade Feath. Prop(Sold Oct '10)

[Loren Beach]

A friend of mine is selling his Autostream (aka "Martec") feathering prop.
Stainless Steel, to fit a 1" shaft.
These have the external pitch adjustment, and external grease fitting.

Diameter is 16".

I have no financial interest -- just posting as a favor.
Asking price is $1500.
This may fit several later model Ericsons.

(new pricing on one of these is about $2750. by the way)

Contact Terry at:

Thanks,
Loren

I've got the same prop, and love it. When it feathers, you can definitely feel less drag, and see results on the speedo.
Mine came with the boat when I bought it from the original owner last year. It's 10 years old, requires no maintenance (other than greasing now and again, and is in great shape.
These props provide the same power in reverse that they provide in forward. No sideways thrust when pulling into a slip.
Definitely worth $1500.00

Thanks for posting this Loren.

The prop is now in my car trunk. Looks like a good deal to me.

Now - please find a 20" for my buddy.
