Gori 2 Blade Sailboat Propeller 14" X 9.5
The Gori 2 Blade Sailboat Propeller, with a heritage spanning over 25 years, stands as a testament to continuous development, leveraging modern manufacturing technology and advanced testing capabilities. Ideal for sailing yachts with engines up to approximately 44 kW/60 hp, this folding propeller is offered in seven sizes ranging from 11.5” to 18” Ø, suitable for both shafts and sail drives, and is available in clockwise or counter-clockwise versions.
Wing synchronization is achieved through a meticulously designed wing shape with teeth, ensuring synchronous movement and minimizing vibrations during forward and backward movements. This results in a correct pitch setting and optimal conduction under motor power, while the automatic folding of wings during sailing reduces drag to a minimum.
Under sail, the 2-blade Gori folding propeller significantly reduces water resistance, as independent tests have shown up to a 35% reduction, leading to a notable speed increase of 1 knot. Its unique design prevents seaweed, plastic bags, and debris from clinging to it while sailing.
Independent tests confirm that the efficiency of the 2-blade Gori folding propeller equals or surpasses that of most 2- and 3-blade rotary or folding propellers, delivering optimal reverse thrust through a combination of shape and profile design combined with centrifugal force. Notably, it doesn't solely rely on centrifugal force to open the wings, ensuring full power in reverse.
Furthermore, tests reveal that the forward drive efficiency of the 2-blade Gori folding propeller surpasses that of most 2- and 3-blade rotary and folding propellers, highlighting its superior performance when driving forward.
