That's my understanding! I need more testing on the water before I can comment with any degree of accuracy.Prop pockets are common on most sportfishermans today, for the reasons above and the lessened draft.
I'm unfamiliar with Mr. Lucander.

I've also heard from the grapevine that they lessen maneuverability. But i haven't run a vessel with them so i couldn't tell you first hand.
With those two keels could the boat be beached in a pinch for repairs?
Britannia,
I had no idea the KK 54 was a double ender. I just assumed they were like the KK 42. She looks so much like a Willard. Fuller in the quarter beam though. My Willard is more of a wine glass section. Looks like a Michigan MP prop. Looks pink too.
Just finished a haulout here in Campbell River. All the wash water must be retained and treated by a new system. I was not permitted to do the washing, it is done by a yard hand. All scrapings of anti-foul paint must also be retained and disposed of in landfill. That, I was allowed to do. I suppose Kitimat does not have a travel lift?
Here's my keel, 3'6" draft.
Hey Dude (For those of you who don't know, we met before kindergarten).
No travel lift in Kitimat, just the trailer with hydraulic pads...not the place to be hauled out if you have a bigger boat. The marina, MK Bay, is under new management so we're hoping for some long overdue improvements.
