Gori 15x9x3RHx1:10W25 Folding Propeller – 3-Blade, Ø15", Pitch 9", Right-Hand, for 25 mm ISO 1:10 Shaft
The Gori Propeller 15x9x3RHx1:10W25 is a high-performance 3-blade folding propeller, awarded the DAME and HISWA Awards in 1994 for its groundbreaking innovation in marine propulsion. Designed for sailing yachts and motor sailers, it blends the low-drag benefits of a folding propeller under sail with high thrust performance under motor.
Key Features
- Folding 3-blade propeller for reduced drag under sail
- Right-hand rotation, Ø15", pitch 9"
- Mounting on 25 mm ISO 1:10 shaft
- Overdrive function for optimized motor cruising
- Quiet and low-vibration operation
Overdrive Function
The integrated Overdrive feature allows pitch and blade profile adjustment via a single lever shift, without the need for complex hydraulics. Ideal for calm weather or low-RPM cruising, it reduces engine noise, fuel consumption, and vibration, while maintaining cruising speed.
Engine Compatibility
- Engine range: 7 kW (10 hp) to 221 kW (300 hp)
- Now also used on vessels with engines above 300 hp
Performance Advantages
Independent testing confirms a +15% efficiency boost in both forward and reverse thrust over traditional folding or rotary propellers. The unique wing-shaped blades provide optimal performance even at lower engine loads.
Under Sail
- Lowest drag among 3-blade folding propellers
- Blade profile remains securely closed when sailing
- Prevents entanglement from seaweed or debris
- Eliminates the need for a shaft brake on hydraulic gearboxes
Construction & Quality
Made from premium Nibral and stainless steel, each propeller is individually numbered for quality control and future servicing. Gori has maintained its position as a market leader in folding propellers for over 25 years.
