I was considering auto/max-prop for my boat to improve reverse handling, reduce prop walk etc.
Today I spoke with someone who is, generally, an excellent specialist and definitely knows engines and boats and what not. His opinion is - max-prop will not help and might make things worse. Instead he suggested that a fixed 4 blade propeller may be preferable for better power and handling.
This sounds interesting but does go against a lot of things I read elsewhere. What does everyone think?
