Not if you sail a multihull

Weight is always the number one topic when discussing performance. My son reminded me just this weekend, when I was putting spare prop blades aboard (for my 19" diameter folding prop). They weigh somewhere in the 10-15 pound range and adding a spare hub brings it north of 20. He suggested I leave them home.

If I do, I'll make sure they're with someone who can ship them fast if needed while we're on vacation.
