Re: 2 Blade vs 3 Blade
Both my 5.5 and 9.9 have two blades each. My 30 and 40 have 3 blades.
I guess a smaller motor is more likely to be on a lighter boat therefore doesnt need as much torque. I have a British Seagull that is around 5 HP with 5 blades and about 10+" diameter. You could darn near move the Queen Mary with that thing.
