Re: CD28 / Volvo MD7A propeller sizing

Campbell got back to me. Looks like for the MD7A the size is 13x8 for three blade. Price is 665 plus shipping. That’s a pretty penny for a propeller. What do you guys think? Is the Campbell really worth it?

Has anyone put a larger prop on a MD7A? Trying to find out what people are currently using that has worked well....
