Embark on a voyage of cutting-edge marine propulsion with the Gori Propeller 18x13x3RHx1:10W35 - Folding Propeller for 35mm ISO Shaft. Introduced in 1994, this 3-blade marvel has earned acclaim with the DAME Award and HISWA Award. It signifies a technological leap, offering sailing yachts and motor sailers the combined advantages of speed under sail and thrust under motor. The unique wing curvature ensures exceptional forward and backward thrust, setting it apart from other propellers. The innovative "Overdrive" function redefines motorized driving, allowing pitch and profile adjustments for reduced noise, vibration, and fuel consumption. Suitable for engines from 10hp to 300hp, it breaks size barriers and delivers a minimum of noise and vibration. With a range of diameters catering to different setups, the propeller's low profile minimizes drag, proving its worth in independent tests that showcase increased boat speed under sail. Choose the Gori Folding Propeller for unparalleled performance, debris-free sailing, and enhanced efficiency under both sail and engine.

Gori Propeller 18x13x3RHx1:10W35 - Folding Propeller 18x13x3RH for 35mm ISO Shaft

Experience the excellence of the 3-blade Gori Folding Propeller, introduced in 1994 and honored with both the DAME Award and HISWA Award for the best new marine product. Representing a leap in technological and functional advancements, this propeller redefines propulsion for sailing yachts, extending its benefits to larger vessels and motor sailers.

The wing curvature of the 3-blade Gori folding propeller ensures outstanding thrust both forward and backward, surpassing the capabilities of most other propellers and enhancing maneuvering properties. What sets it apart is the unique "Overdrive" function, offering a new dimension to motorized driving. Helmsmen can effortlessly adjust pitch and profile without delicate hydraulics, providing the same speed at lower revs, resulting in reduced engine noise, vibration, and fuel consumption, especially in calm weather or when sailing.

Simple in operation, the transition from normal ahead to "overdrive" involves shifting to reverse via idle while the ship moves backward, then switching back to ahead. Returning from "overdrive" to normal ahead is achieved by shifting gears to neutral, prompting propeller folding, and shifting back to ahead. This distinctive function, along with turning propellers during maneuvering, distinguishes the Gori 3-flg. Folding propeller from all others.

Suitable for a Range of Engines

Previously reserved for smaller sailing yachts, the Gori 3-bladed propeller breaks barriers by accommodating engines from 7kW (10hp) to 221kW (300hp), making its special advantages accessible to large sailing yachts and motor sailers, even those with engines over 300 hp.

The result of the Gori propeller's special design is a minimum of noise and vibration, addressing common issues with rotary blade propellers featuring flat blades. With diameters ranging from 15” to 30” for standard shafting and 15” to 20” for saildrive configurations, it offers versatility for different vessel setups.

Advantage Under Sail

The low profile when folded minimizes drag, proven by independent tests to increase boat speed under sail. Elevate your sailing experience and enhance the overall value of your boat by choosing the Gori Folding Propeller. Its unique shape prevents debris entanglement, and in vessels with hydraulic gearboxes, the expensive installation of a shaft brake becomes unnecessary, ensuring gearbox durability.

Performance Under Engine

Rigorous tests by leading yachting magazines and independent organizations confirm the Gori 3rd flg. Folding propeller's significantly higher efficiency in both advance (+15%) and reverse (+15%) compared to other folding or rotary blade propellers. This efficiency is attributed to the special curvature and rotation of the propeller blades, optimizing thrust even in under-powered conditions often encountered with flat-bladed rotary designs.
