The Gori Propeller 18x15x2RHx1:10W30, a product of over 25 years of continuous evolution, is a cutting-edge 2-blade folding propeller designed for sailing yachts with engines up to approximately 44 kW/60 hp. With seven size options for shafts and sail drives, this propeller offers both clockwise and counter-clockwise versions. Featuring wing synchronization, it minimizes vibrations during forward and reverse driving, automatically folding its wings to reduce drag while sailing. Independent tests showcase its remarkable ability to enhance sailing speed by reducing water resistance, and its efficiency in both forward and reverse, surpassing many rotary and folding propellers. The Gori 2-blade folding propeller stands as a testament to innovation and performance in marine propulsion, with a legacy rooted in continuous improvement and modern technology integration.

Gori Propeller 18x15x2RHx1:10W30 - 2-Blade Folding Propeller 18x15x2R, 30mm ISO shaft

The Gori 2-blade folding propeller, with a legacy spanning more than 25 years, has evolved continuously to leverage modern manufacturing technology and testing capabilities. Engineered for sailing yachts with motors up to approximately 44 kW/60 hp, it is available in seven sizes ranging from 11.5” to 18” Ø for both shafts and sail drives, offering clockwise or counter-clockwise versions.

Featuring wing synchronization, the propeller's wing shape with teeth ensures a harmonized wing movement, minimizing vibrations in both forward and reverse driving. This results in accurate pitch settings and optimal conduction under motor power. While sailing, the wings automatically fold, reducing drag to a minimum.

Unlocking full sailing speed, the 2-blade Gori folding propeller significantly reduces water resistance, as proven by independent tests showing up to a 35% decrease in certain cases. This translates to a speed increase of up to 1 knot under sail, varying with boat length and displacement. The propeller's design prevents seaweed, plastic bags, and debris from clinging to it during sailing.

In reverse, the propeller exhibits optimal thrust efficiency, matching or surpassing most 2- and 3-blade rotary or folding propellers, thanks to a combination of shape and profile design along with centrifugal force. Unlike many folding propellers, the Gori folding propeller doesn't solely rely on centrifugal force to open the wings.

Independent tests also reveal superior forward drive efficiency, exceeding that of most 2- and 3-blade rotary and folding propellers. The Gori 2-blade folding propeller stands as a testament to innovation and performance in marine propulsion.
