Description
It stuns those in the know when we tell them that Indioko still has traditional fixed blade propellers. These three blade, shaft mount propellers came with the boat and are common on charter boats for their low maintenance requirements.
In blue water cruising boats however, that is far from the normal. fixed propellers create drag when we are sailing which slows us down and creates inefficiencies that really count on a week long passage.
So most cruisers will have some form of folding or feathering propeller. these collapse to be more streamline when sailing and open up when you first up the iron sails.
Gori offers the best of both feathering and folding propellers due to their unique design and we have been working with them to get Indioko a new pair of running shoes.
This is a significant investment and not one that Gori can be expected to offer us for free and so we need to raise some funds to cover the costs.
