Propeller

The standard propeller fitted was 14" diameter by 11" pitch, with left handed blades. This means that if you are stood behind the boat facing forwards, the propeller will rotate anti clockwise to move forwards and the propeller will kick the stern to starboard when in reverse gear.

When going astern, until the boat is well underway and there is a good flow of water over the rudder reversing a Renown can be exciting!
