Has anyone replaced the stock prop on the Horizon diesel (Yanmar 2 cyl)?  I have a vibration that I believe is prop oriented.  The cost of balancing is ridiculous.  Thanks Sail On,  Al

Hi Al,
  Tnx for the note on the Petit Chat purchase yesterday. (I still lurk here occasionally.)

didn't mean to hit return b4 --
  I did hv the prop balanced after I hit a stump.  Yes, pricey, it was an up-to-date shop with the latest eqpt.  But cheaper than a replacement.  If I didn't incl. the result sheet with the boat, I should still have it.  Degree by degree info for each blade.  I'll look for it & email it to you if I have it, but should have been in that red folder.
