Hi Gertjan,

Does seem small.  Have a KiwiProp on mine.  Looking at the Kiwi sizing table here mines a bit larger (just search on "Hanse" and it shows up way down the list).  My engine is a Yanmar 3JH and looking at other similar-sized boats in the table with your Volvo they also go for a larger size.  Different props and engines but food for thought to help you perhaps?

Just ask Flex-O-Fold.  They will do calculation for you.
They did for mine and the propellor fits perfect.

Yes, That sounds logic. The problem is That it is difficult to give them the right information About the engine. Because it is A saildrive i'll cant see the plate on the bagside of the engine were is written the reduction etc. Of the drive. I hope someone at this forum nows the proper information

This is the very best advise. I have 16*10 on a 355 with D1-20 and that is just perfect.

Yep, the naval engineer at Flex-O-Fold is very competent. She was who told me that the old Yanmars on the Jeanneau boats had a rpm reduction in reverse Shocked. This explained why my boat had no noticeable deceleration when going astern, nor any power when going out of the mooring.

2,2 on 1 is the same reduction as my hanse370
So you als need the18x13 prop
I have seen a hanse 400 at the Tijssen yard in Zoeterwoude wich also hase the flexofold 18x13 a few years ago.
It had a yanmar in it but sinds we did not know wich reduction the volvo had (seems to be the same as the yanmar) ou can also have the 18x13 , same I have
