Volvo penta d2-60 issue.... advice needed please

[dune16]

Our 2019 volvo penta d2-60 was serviced a couple of months ago. We are back to the boat now and just went 30 mins round the corner to anchor. Noticed more than usual vibration at lower revs and we can't get power past about 2200rpm. All usual checks are good, prop is quite fouled.

Any ideas for me to check?

Thanks

I'd start with the prop then as that will certainly produce both problems you have encountered.

Thanks, that's what I had hoped. Looks like when she was lifted out in January in Denia, Spain they didn't af the prop and leg. We are in Sardinia now so no going back ? I'll see if a diver will go in and clean it up, just tried myself with a mask but didn't like the boat slamming down on me

How about moving to a marina or a quieter anchorage for a day to clean it?

Yes, will give that a try at anchor tomorrow, otherwise a diver in the marina will do it
