Maxprop feathering propellers

EXTREMELY LOW RESISTANCE

The most important feature of the Maxprop is that the blades automatically turn to "feather" with the forward movement of the boat. Once turned into the feather position, the maxprop offers the least possible resistance. The ship's sailing speed improves with an average of 15% 15% over a conventional fixed propeller

EFFICIENCY

In forward: Maxprop offers 96% of the efficiency of a fixed propeller with the same diameter and pitch. The loss of 4% of thrust can usually be eliminated by fine tuning the Maxprop's pitch.

In reverse: The Maxprop delivers 80% 80% more power than a comparable fixed propeller. The Maxprop uses the same setting as in the forward.

RELIABILITY

Maxprop uses "differentiated" blades, which can not be opened during sailing

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE

The Maxprop propellers fit directly on an existing shaft with a standard cone. The Maxprop can be tailored to your specific propellershaft cone. A sail-drive version is also available.

SAILING

The Max prop is the propeller for the touring and racing sailor. The combination of low resistance, increased speed, excellent power in forward and reverse, gives you safety in maneuvering. Worldwide, many top racing yachts have opted for the Max-prop solution.
