Gori Propeller 24x17x3LHx1:10W40
The 3-blade Gori folding propeller, introduced in 1994, received both the DAME Award and HISWA Award, establishing itself as the best new marine product of the year.
This propeller signifies a remarkable technological and functional advancement in propeller development for sailing yachts, enabling larger vessels to combine the speed advantages under sail with the thrust of a fixed propeller under motor.
The wing curvature of the 3-blade Gori folding propeller not only creates excellent thrust ahead but also achieves the same power in reverse, providing superior maneuvering properties compared to almost all other propellers.
'Overdrive' Function
The innovative "Overdrive" function adds a new dimension to motorized driving. Helmsmen can adjust the pitch and profile of the propeller when moving forward, controlled via the boat's single lever shift without the need for delicate hydraulics or complicated mechanics. This function is beneficial in calm weather or when powering under sail, offering the same speed at lower revs, resulting in reduced engine noise, vibration, and fuel consumption.
Switching between "overdrive" and normal ahead is a simple process, unique to the Gori 3-blade folding propeller, setting it apart from others in the market.
Suitable for Engines
Suitable for engines ranging from 10hp to 300hp, the Gori folding propeller breaks traditional size limitations, making it available for larger sailing yachts and motor sailers with engines over 300 hp.
The special design minimizes noise and vibration, common issues with rotary blade propellers with flat blades. Available in diameters from 15” to 30” for standard shafting and 15” to 20” for saildrive configurations.
Advantage under Sail
The low profile when folded ensures 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. The unique shape prevents debris from getting caught and eliminates the need for a shaft brake with hydraulic gearboxes.
Performance under Engine
Tests by leading yachting magazines and independent organizations reveal the 3rd flg. Gori folding propeller's significantly higher efficiency in 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.
Professional Quality
Gori Propeller, a leader in folding propeller design for over 25 years, emphasizes professional quality using materials like Nibral and stainless steel. The 3rd-bladed Gori folding propeller continues their technical lead and remains the first choice for leading designers, yacht builders, and regatta sailors. Each Gori propeller is numbered for quality assurance and future service reference.
