The Gori Propeller 26x20x3LHx1:10W45 stands as a pioneering 3-blade folding propeller, introduced in 1994 and recognized with the esteemed DAME Award and HISWA Award for its innovative marine product design. This propeller represents a remarkable technological leap, enabling larger sailing yachts and motor sailers to capitalize on the speed advantages under sail while benefiting from the thrust of a fixed propeller under motor. With its distinctive wing curvature, the propeller excels in creating powerful thrust in both forward and reverse, surpassing the maneuvering capabilities of most other propellers. The unique "Overdrive" function enhances motorized driving, allowing pitch and profile adjustments seamlessly controlled through the boat's single lever shift, eliminating the need for delicate hydraulics or complicated mechanics. Suitable for engines from 7kW to 221kW, including those over 300hp, it addresses noise and vibration concerns with its specially designed propeller blades. The propeller, available in diameters from 15” to 30” for standard shafting and 15” to 20” for saildrive configurations, boasts a low profile when folded, minimizing drag and increasing boat speed under sail. Tests by leading yachting magazines highlight its superior efficiency in both forward and reverse, showcasing the propeller's high performance and durability. With professional quality materials like Nibral and stainless steel, Gori Propeller maintains its leadership position, offering a reliable and efficient solution favored by designers, yacht builders, and regatta sailors. Each propeller is numbered for quality assurance and future service, ensuring a top-notch sailing experience.

The Gori Propeller 26x20x3LHx1:10W45 is a groundbreaking 3-blade folding propeller, introduced in 1994 and distinguished with the prestigious DAME Award and HISWA Award for the best new marine product.

Representing a significant leap in technology and functionality for sailing yachts, this propeller enables larger sailing yachts and motor sailers to harness the speed advantages of the folding propeller under sail, coupled with the thrust of the fixed propeller under motor.

Thanks to the wing curvature, the 3-blade Gori folding propeller excels in creating excellent thrust both ahead and in reverse, providing superior power and maneuvering properties compared to almost all other propellers.

'Overdrive' function
The unique "Overdrive" function adds a new dimension to motorized driving, allowing the helmsman to change the pitch and profile of the propeller when moving forward. This is seamlessly controlled via the boat's single lever shift without the need for delicate hydraulics or complicated mechanics.

The “overdrive” is utilized under power in calm weather or when powering under sail, offering the same speed at lower revs, resulting in reduced engine noise, less vibration, and lower fuel consumption.

Advantage under sail
The low profile when folded ensures the lowest drag among all 3-blade folding and rotary blade propellers, proven through independent tests. This leads to an increase in boat speed under sail, enhancing the overall value of your boat. Why sail slowly?

The shape of the folding propeller prevents seaweed, plastic bags, and other debris from getting caught on it, and it remains closed when sailing, eliminating the need for an expensive shaft brake with hydraulic gearboxes, without compromising gearbox durability.

Performance under engine
Tests by leading yachting magazines and independent organizations reveal that the 3rd blade Gori folding propeller exhibits 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, optimizing thrust even with under-powered engines.
