I've thought that too. Older single engine models have left handed prop rotation. Maybe someone else knows a different reason the hull was made to accomadate LH props? I tried a RH prop with a different pitch from a newer fountain and it throws it off big time. |
When I look at different brands I try to figure out how to switch it to left handed, like it much better.
Most sit down cats and V's have the throttles in the center, I assume that sometimes these owners drive them without a throttle man....................... maybe not. |
The stix are lefty for the same reason founts have beaks...theres a mind teaser for all u
|
i know why......cause reggie said so,hows that?
