Subject: TWL: FW: Appropriate prop size for Defever 44?

Leo,
We have 26x21 props on our 44 Defever and that seems to be a good size. The
engines (120 Lehman's) turn a little slow at wot, 2500 vs what my mechanics
says is an ideal of 2600. Sounds like 26x20 might be the optimum size.
I wouldn't change unless they were bent and you had to change them anyway.

I am putting new props on my 1988 Defever 44 trawler. The existing props
are26x20.Has anyone had experience with 26x19 on that boat?
