Gori Propeller 11.5x9.5x2RHS-DV10LSME - 2-Wing Folding Propeller 11.5x9.5x2RHS for DV10LSME
The Gori 2-blade folding propeller in the dimensions of 11.5x9.5x2RHS-DV10LSME represents a culmination of over 25 years of continuous development in marine propulsion technology. Introduced more than two decades ago, this folding propeller has evolved to harness the benefits of modern manufacturing and testing capabilities.
Suitable for sailing yachts with engines up to approximately 44 kW/60 hp, this 2-blade Gori folding propeller is available in seven different sizes, ranging from 11.5” to 18” Ø for both shafts and sail drives, with options for clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation. The wing shape with toothing ensures synchronous movement, minimizing vibrations and optimizing pitch under motor operation. When sailing, the wings automatically fold, reducing drag to a minimum and increasing overall boat speed under sail.
Under sail, this folding propeller proves its efficiency by significantly reducing water resistance, with independent tests showing up to a 35% reduction in certain cases, resulting in a notable speed increase of up to 1 knot. The design also prevents seaweed, plastic bags, and debris from clinging to the propeller during sailing.
When it comes to reverse thrust, the 2-blade Gori folding propeller demonstrates equal or superior efficiency compared to most 2- and 3-blade rotary or folding propellers. The shape and profile design, combined with centrifugal force, optimize reverse thrust, setting it apart from other folding propellers that rely solely on centrifugal force to open the wings.
Designed for sail drives, the hub of the Gori Saildrive Propeller features a flexible core for shock absorption and electrical isolation, meeting the requirements of engine manufacturers. With a safety system in the hub for increased durability and maneuverability, this propeller is compatible with popular sail drives, including Bukh, Sonic, Volvo-Penta (including 50S and 100S drives), Yanmar, and more.
