FWIW,
I got a slipstream stainless 2 bladed folding prop recently. I had a fixed 2 blade prop. I like the new one better seems in my limited experince it does seem to back better. I can not really discern a difference in forward. Seems to work fine in my limited experience.

Re: Electric motor inboard
I am hardly an expert but thought I would put in my thoughts on the generator. I would consider getting an inverter generator. The reason is they use less fuel and have heard that they are quieter especially if not on full load. Best.

Re: Electric motor inboard
I have not done the electric motor conversion. I have a yanmar diesel. However, the idea seems sound and would love it if you would keep us posted. I am sure others would like to know your thoughts and obstacles. Thanks for posting.

Re: DIFFERENT MODELS OF 32
Thanks for mentioning the swim platform for the Hoyt 32. I actually thought about trying to add one briefly (have fabricated) but was concerned about the integrity of the boat and if the fiberglass guy could do a proper job. With my reservations, don’t see this as reality with my boat.

Re: DIFFERENT MODELS OF 32
FWIW, my understanding of the F30 F32 is spot on by chip aka 'gulf coast sailor". I have the F32 sans sugar scoop, which is the Hoyt. Best,
