My yard fitted the EWOL propeller and we have been using it all August. I wanted to tell you that the propeller has been fantastic. It’s extremely smooth. The power and the pitch as delivered has been a perfect match for our engine where we get good performance in the mid range and still get excellent top speed.
Reversing is a breeze and thrust in reverse is excellent. And of course for the first time we can sail without the prop shaft spinning which is both (a lot) faster and quieter than we had before.
We had the propeller coated with PropSpeed and have had no issues with singing or strange noises.
I think your propeller is excellent and would happily recommend to anybody contemplating a conversion for a motorsailor such as ours where thrust under power is important.
Kind regards,
