    Apart from pure efficiency, another consideration:

    >From "All About Powerboats" by Roger Marshall (2002, International Marine/
    McGraw Hill):

    "A hull with a centerline keel requires a prop with an odd number of blades
    to eliminate the possibility of two blades being masked by the keel at any
    one time. If this were to happen, you would probably hear and feel
    vibrations throughout the boat."
