Ok, Ok,  I broke off one of the impeller blades from my knotmeter when trying to clear some barnacles.  I repaired the blade with the material I had on hand to repair my dentures -- that pink stuff and catalyst that you can buy in the drugstore.  It's been working ever since.

    I continue to have difficulty finding a replacement prop for my knotmeter.   
    An impossibility is more like it.  Most places respond as if I am requesting 
    something extraterresterial.  Unfortunately, the prop is so badly damaged, I 
    do not think the epoxy/tin repair method will work. 

    If my search continues to be unsuccessful, can anyone recommend a make or 
    model that I might replace the current system with? 

    The current knotmeter reads in kilometers, not nautical readings.  The former 
    boat owner told me it was of German origin.  I have looked all around but I 
    have not been able to find a name or model.    Would or could this be the 
    Sumlog that someone mentioned from Holland Marine in Canada? 

    Help please.        Lorelei
