Gori 2 Blade Racing Folding Propeller 475x330LHS for Sail Drive

Gori 2 Blade 475mm Racing Folding Propeller

The Gori Racing Folding Propeller stands as the ultimate choice for professional regatta sailboats, meeting the desires of skippers, designers, and shipyards worldwide. Renowned for its exceptional performance, the Gori Racing Propellers have secured their place as the fastest propellers in the world, with a distinguished track record of victories in prestigious races like the Admiral's Cup, Newport-Bermuda Race, Route du Rhun, Sydney-Hobart, Transpac, Vendèe Globe, Whitbread Round the World Race, and numerous others.

Available in diameters ranging from 375mm to 750mm, accommodating shaft systems, saildrives, and hydrodrives, the Racing Folding Propeller boasts a pitch that is 75% of the diameter. This unique combination allows installation on motors with a power of up to 150 hp, available in both left-hand and right-hand versions.

The design and shape of the propeller ensure minimal resistance under sail, folding up seamlessly like a clam. The wing shape with toothing guarantees synchronous wing movement, eliminating the need for rubber stops. Each racing propeller undergoes rigorous testing in the tank before shipment, ensuring safe and reliable opening from the fully folded state, setting it apart from other folding propellers.

The propeller's shape prevents seaweed, plastic bags, and debris from getting caught during sailing, distinguishing it from rotary blade propellers. Additionally, the Saildrive Propeller features a hub with a flexible core for shock absorption and electrical isolation, designed for popular sail drives such as Bukh, Sonic, Volvo-Penta, Yanmar, and more. A safety system in the hub enhances durability and ensures maneuverability at all times.
