A shiny new propeller

The Sabb 2JGR uses a lefthand propeller, the propeller on Freyja was a righthand one.
We calculated that we only had room to fit an 18 inch prop, the manufacturers recommendation is a 20 inch by 16 pitch. So we decided to get an 18 inch by 17 pitch propeller cast.
Once the boat was out of the water, we realised that it would have taken a 19 inch one! Drat!
Our shiny new prop, fresh from the casters.
The new propeller fitted.
