Gori Hybrid Propeller

GORI Propeller is delighted to announce that the GORI Hybrid Propeller is coming in 2025. The first folding propeller that allows the sailor to switch between sailing performance and regeneration modes.

Available to preview at METS 2024, on stand 12.540, the GORI Hybrid Propeller with ‘patent pending’ is based on the same platform as the DAME Design Award winning GORI 3-Blade Propeller for sailing boats with an added feature to optimise it for electric and hybrid propulsion.

GORI has developed an integrated locking system which will keep the blade open when regeneration is a priority, there is then a mechanism to release the blades, so they are folded when performance under sail is a priority. Boat handling and manoeuvrability are the same as per the standard 3-Blade Propeller.

“Using the GORI 3-Blade Propeller for regeneration is not new, customers have been using our original propeller for several years now, but it’s not optimised for this purpose,” comments Lars Østergaard Senior Vice President Sales at GORI Propeller. “Extensive testing has been conducted both here in Haderslev, Denmark and with a manufacturer of electric propulsion. We are delighted with the results and it’s time for us to tell the world that effective regeneration with a folding propeller is possible!”

The GORI Hybrid Propeller 3-Blade will be available for both shaft and saildrive, with diameters from 18” to 30”.

All are invited to come and see the GORI Hybrid Propeller prototype 18 x 11 LHS at METS on stand 12.540 from 19th to 21st November at METS at a time convenient to you.

For a 1:1 appointment with Lars Østergaard, where you can find out more about the GORI Hybrid and all folding propellers in the range, at METS please email lop@gori-propeller.dk.

More blade area, for more power for engines with 200+ horsepower, or when not enough room for an optimised 3 blade propeller The 4 blade Gori Propeller has the same features and operate the same way as the 3 blade Gori Propeller, with the blades pivoting 180 degrees between forward and reverse, providing the same thrust in both directions.

Low drag, high power for a wide range of sailboats The 3-bladed Gori Single Pitch Propeller is a further development of the award winning 3-blade Gori Overdrive Propeller (OD). It has all the major features of the original propeller, apart from the Overdrive. It has the same low drag (1.4 Newton at 6 knots), and it operates the same pitch in forward and in reverse, giving the same thrust in both directions.

Combining minimum drag under sail with maximum thrust while motoring The 3-blade Gori Folding Propeller marks a technological and functional leap forward in the development of propellers for sailboats. It is the only folding propeller operating the same pitch in forward and in reverse, the blades pivot 180 degree. It is now possible for sailboats and motorsailers to gain the folding propeller's speed advantages under sail, combined with the fixed propeller's thrust capability when motoring. The 3-blade Gori

A propeller design built for speed with a track record to prove it With Gori Racing Propeller, everything is geared towards speed. From the intricately designed aquadynamic shape and the ingenious folding mechanism to the precision engineering. This reduces drag to an absolute minimum when folded while maintaining maximum effect under engine power and is the main reason that the Gori Racing Propeller is the choice for the majority of One Design racing yachts.

2-Blade Propeller for Saildrive and shaft

A great all-round propeller with a host of unique features The 2-blade Gori Folding Propeller is designed for sailing yachts fitted with engines up to approximately 60 HP (44 KW). The geared blade design ensures blades open and close together giving less vibration ahead and astern. Under sail blades close simultaneously. It is available in 7 diameters from 11.5" to 18" for shaft installation and Sail-drive. RH and LH rotation.
