From the Back Cover
- Why won't your engine reach its top rated RPMs?
- Why is your propeller shaft vibrating?
- Why doesn't your boat reach the top speed claimed by the manufacturer?
- Will more or less propeller pitch improve your boat's performance?
- Is a square wheel (pitch equals diameter) best?
- Is a folding prop best for your purposes?
- Should you choose a two-, three-, or four-bladed propeller?
All these questions and more are answered in this complete reference--the first of its kind.

"Without doubt the definitive reference for selecting, installing, and understanding boat propellers."--Royal Navy Sailing Association Journal
"This book is for everyone who has ever had to make a decision about a propeller: mechanics, boatbuilders, boat service yard owners, boat owners, as well as naval architects. Dave Gerr and International Marine made a complicated topic understandable and put it into a handbook that is easy to use."--WoodenBoat
