Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
Is there a minimum clearance recommended between the propeller blades and the fin/skeg? Mine just barely misses it. It is OK to shave off a bit of the fin to get more clearance?
If your refering to the anode just below the antivent plate you can notch it
a little. If it is indeed the skeg I would suspect it is the wrong prop or perhaps needs a thrust washer.
I did mean the anode. Thanks for the responses. I just checked the prop and it looks like it was actually hitting it just a little. Although it just clears when I turn it by hand. Maybe in reverse it pulled back? I did not hear it make contact.
