Chris,

When I sold my '83 C27 a couple years back, I found that I had kept a two-bladed prop that was stowed aboard. I imagine that a previous owner had switched to three bladed. The boat had a 5411.

I would be glad to part with it cheap if you want it. I have no idea what it is worth, but it is solid brass, so will cost a little to ship. Make me an offer! I would rather have it on a C27 than in my basement.

I think the three blade has more bite, but unless you are bucking heavy seas or currents, my guess is the two-blade is sufficient. And it would have less drag.

email me if you like at rogerdshoemaker@gmail.com
