The Gori Propeller 18x13x3RHx1:10W30 stands as a pinnacle in marine propulsion technology, introduced in 1994 and acclaimed with the DAME Award and HISWA Award. This 3-blade folding propeller redefines sailing yacht performance, allowing larger vessels to seamlessly combine speed advantages under sail with the thrust of a fixed propeller under motor. Its innovative "Overdrive" function, controlled effortlessly via a boat's single lever shift, enhances motorized driving, reducing engine noise, vibration, and fuel consumption. With suitability for engines ranging from 7kW to 221kW, including those over 300 hp, the Gori propeller ensures minimal noise and vibration, offering diameters from 15” to 30” for standard shafting and 15” to 20” for saildrive configurations. Its low profile when folded minimizes drag, verified by independent tests to boost boat speed under sail and increase overall vessel value. The propeller's special design prevents debris entanglement during sailing, eliminating the need for a shaft brake with hydraulic gearboxes. Performance tests demonstrate remarkable efficiency gains in both advance and reverse (+15%), attributed to the unique curvature and rotation of the propeller blades. With over 25 years of leadership in design and development, Gori Propeller maintains its reputation for professional quality, utilizing materials like Nibral and stainless steel. A preferred choice for leading designers, yacht builders, and regatta sailors, each Gori propeller is numbered for quality assurance and future service reference.

The Gori 3-blade folding propeller, introduced in 1994 and honored with the DAME Award and HISWA Award, represents a groundbreaking advancement in sailing yacht propeller technology. Enabling both larger sailing yachts and motor sailers to harness the speed benefits under sail and thrust under motor, the wing curvature of the propeller ensures excellent forward and reverse power, distinguishing it from other propellers.

The unique "Overdrive" function enhances motorized driving by allowing the helmsman to change the pitch and profile without delicate hydraulics or complicated mechanics. This function, used in calm weather or while powering under sail, reduces engine noise, vibration, and fuel consumption.

Suitable for engines from 7kW to 221kW, the Gori folding propeller breaks the previous limitation for smaller vessels and is now available for engines over 300 hp. The special design minimizes noise and vibration, common in rotary blade propellers, and comes in diameters from 15” to 30” for standard shafting and 15” to 20” for saildrive configurations.

With a low profile when folded, the Gori propeller exhibits the lowest drag among 3-blade folding and rotary blade propellers, proven in independent tests to increase boat speed under sail, enhancing the overall value of your boat. The shape prevents debris entanglement during sailing, eliminating the need for a shaft brake with hydraulic gearboxes.

Performance tests demonstrate a significant efficiency increase in both advance and reverse (+15%) compared to other folding or rotary blade propellers, attributed to the special curvature and rotation of the propeller blades. Gori Propeller, a leader in design and development for over 25 years, prioritizes professional quality using materials like Nibral and stainless steel.

Continuing its legacy in design, quality, and durability, Gori Propeller remains the preferred choice for leading designers, yacht builders, and regatta sailors. Each Gori propeller is numbered for quality assurance and future service reference.
