Problem solved....Thanks to Paul in Windsor. Paul was so kind as to lend me two Nibral props to try, a 13 x 10 Cupped Dyna Jet...and a 14 x 9 Cupped DJX. The performer was the 14 x 9 DJX.

My apologies, have no idea why the multiple posts

Had the same experience...after the original wooden support snapped while underway. Didn't know why the boat was turning whilst my wheel was not! Designed this up out of aluminum...maybe overkill, the wood one lasted 42 years... :roll: http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu301/F26_Express/image.jpg1_...
