That being said, without commenting on the merits of the kiwi, I can't see the downside of the feathering prop.
I base this, of course, on the assumption that you will be using the boat as a sailboat and the purpose of the motor is truly auxiliary. I know that I would not want to be dragging a large 3 bladed prop around on what is essentially a racing hull.
Good luck and look forwarded to hearing how it works out.

You are going from a 12" prop to a 14" prop. Are you sure that you have enough clearance for the 14" prop? I ask because most sailboats have too small of a prop because there just is not enough clearance to get a proper sized one in.
BTW, I have never had a kiwi prop but do have a MaxProp (feathering like the kiwi) and love it.
