| Kiwi I have no personal experience with the Kiwi. A dock mate has had one on his Hunter 38 for a couple of years. Loves it. He noticed a big difference under both sail and power over the fixed 3 blade he replaced. Our waters aren't the cleanest, crab trap lines/bouys, tree branches in the water from storms/waterfront development and the normal assortment of trash both soft and hard common to commercial/industrial waterways. Blades have held up well. He does carry a spare which can be changed with the boat in the water. |
