Cornish Shrimpers with 3-blade FeatherStream Prop

Cornish Shrimpers are great family boats and this is our second one but for all their good points they are not known for their dazzling hull speeds so the prospect of making ours faster both under sail as well as under power seemed to be most intriguing as well as potentially reassuring if we chose to venture further without concern that a foul tide might leave us stranded !

Having fitted our new three bladed FeatherStream myself following the very clear instructions I was both surprised and elated at the transformative effect of sailing speeds when feathered as well as speeds under engine requiring far less revs for similar hulls speeds.

There is no doubt that FeatherStream provide a brilliant solution for obtaining significantly improved performance both during sailing and under power making the experience immeasurably more pleasurable – coupled with fabulous technical back up from a great team at Darglow ensuring the whole process a delight – the best decision we have made for our Shrimper without a shadow of a doubt.
