RE: Prop sharpening & other tips for new boaters
Has the prop been overthinned? It's easy to go too far at the tips.
One of the locals here really thins his props and on his .21 'rigger had folded one up. Outriggers do need to have a thicker blade as they have to support weight.
Cavitating is corners means that the strut is a little too high. When the boat leans over, it is brining the prop closer to the surface. People who offset their struts slightly to the right gain 2 things, one is less tilting of the hull from torque ands the other of course is that it keeps the prop planted in more water in the turns.
