Cal 33-2 folding prop size and pitch?
cal33peregrine2010-06-11 02:08
Does anyone out there have a folding prop on their Call 33-2? I have a 16 RH15 fixed two blade and want to move to a folding prop. Any suggestions?

If you are spending the money, go for a 3 blade folding prop. We put a 3
blade fixed prop on our 33 and rough water motoring (Neuse River chop) and
flat water speed (no wind on the ICW) improved greatly.
I am very pleased with my decision, even though the 3 knot rule come into
effect quicker. (G) Backing I can get steerage in less than a boat length
now.
