Gori Propeller 15x10x3LHS - Folding Prop
The 3-blade Gori folding propeller, with the specifications 15x10x3LHS for Sail Drive, represents a groundbreaking advancement in marine propulsion. Introduced in 1994, it quickly garnered recognition, receiving the DAME Award and HISWA Award for the best new marine product.
The technological innovation of the 3-blade Gori folding propeller allows both larger sailing yachts and motor sailers to benefit from the speed advantages under sail and the thrust of a fixed propeller under motor.
The wing curvature of the 3-blade Gori folding propeller creates exceptional thrust in both forward and reverse directions, providing enhanced power and maneuvering capabilities compared to other propellers.
'Overdrive' Function
The "Overdrive" function allows the helmsman to change the pitch and profile of the propeller while moving forward, providing a new dimension to motorized driving. This is achieved without the need for delicate hydraulics or complicated mechanics, controlled via the boat's single lever shift.
The "overdrive" function is particularly useful in calm weather or when powering under sail, offering the same speed at lower revs, resulting in reduced engine noise, vibration, and fuel consumption.
Suitable for Engines
The Gori folding propeller is suitable for engines ranging from 7kW (10hp) to 221kW (300hp), expanding its usability from smaller sailing yachts to larger vessels with higher engine power.
Advantages Under Sail
The low profile when folded minimizes drag, providing the lowest drag among 3-blade folding and rotary blade propellers. Independent tests confirm increased boat speed under sail, enhancing the overall value of your boat.
Performance Under Engine
Tests by leading yachting magazines and independent organizations demonstrate a significant increase in efficiency in both forward and reverse compared to other propellers, thanks to the special curvature and rotation of the Gori folding propeller blades.
Saildrive Propellers
The Gori Saildrive Propeller features a flexible core in the hub acting as a shock absorber and electrically isolating the propeller from the saildrive. The hub's safety system ensures durability and maneuverability, designed for popular sail drives such as Bukh, Sonic, Volvo-Penta, Yanmar, and others.
Professional Quality
Gori Propeller has been the market leader in design and development for over 25 years. The 3rd-bladed Gori folding propeller, constructed with high-quality materials like Nibral and stainless steel, exemplifies their technical leadership and commitment to professional quality.
All Gori propellers are numbered for quality assurance and future service needs.
