Trolling propeller with a slightly higher pitch

thingiverse

Finally a higher pitch propeller for small trolling motors! The propeller is designed for greater speed so it will make the motor pull more power. I suggest not putting the trolling motor on full power until up to speed. I hope this could push my sailboat up to 8-9km/t! I use two 400w trolling motors on my boat and it works really well. The static trust test were very impressive with a lot more powerful water stream. Its even more quiet than the stock 2 bladed propeller. I measured a higher current draw so be careful in your usage. I estimate the power envelope to be around 5-600W and it made my boat go closer to hull speed. The only negative I've noticed is less weed capability and higher current draw at accelerating and top speed. So watch those amps when using it! My motors has Vesc (esc) which keeps the current to set limits at all times. I spent a week designing this so consider sending me a tip if this propeller works well for you :)
