Re: Autoprop vs Maxprop and specs of each
Hi Colin,
i don't know where that information came from about later SMs having Maxprops.

A54 Anchor wash pump
Hello,
Is it still possible to get the original anchor wash pump for the A54 (Reya A66)?
Are there any good alternatives that might be easier to source?
