Thanks for the feedback.

I suspect that the previous routine maintenance may not have adjusted the nut properly so that the balde are maybe slightly too sloppy.I will check this out at the next haul and also beaother alternatives in mind if I can't live with the autoprop.

Does anyone have experience with the autoprop "clunking". I was another boat with an autoprop which had a significant "clunk" , more than I would have expected.

It appears to do so when engaging forward, but not reverse, but once engaged there is no vibration at all at any speed. It this just a normal part of the operation, given that it is quite heavy, or is there a possible problem?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks

Derek

Catalina sells a white door already mounted in a teak frame that is about 1ft square. I bought one last year but it was expensive ! Try their parts Dept.
