October Moon Sailing June 2010

Beneteau 43 October Moon sailing close hauled in 15-20kt winds and 3-5ft seas. Speeds were in the 8.6kt through the water range. Running north from Solomons to St Michaels MD. Did this for close to 4 hrs. Much fun!

foldng prop FOF on beneteau 40

Hi, This is my first post in the group and first of alll I want to say Hi at all. I have a Ben 40 with a yanmar 3jh4e (40cv) and I am thinking to buy a flexofold propeller. They suggest me a 18x13R. Have anyone experience with this boat and propeller in terms of sailing performance and boat speed under engine? Do you have data for  boat speed at various RPM? Thanks. Best of all for everyone.See More
