Hunter Horizon 27: folding prop size/recommendations

[davesparkes]

Hello,

I have recently purchased a Horizon 27 twin keel fitted with the standard Yanmar 1GM10 swinging a two-bladed fixed prop.
It would be good to upgrade to a folding prop, but do any of you forumites have any guidance or recommendations on prop suppliers, sizes, etc?
Thanks in anticipation of your excellent assistance.

Cheers,
Dave

The links below may help but ultimately the prop manufacturer is the one to ask about matching his product to your engine.
Decide which prop you want and then ask the company concerned.
