A New Paradigm for Cruising

Props-Maxi vs. Gori

Steve– In your book you seemed to like the max prop. Is this still your true? if not, what is your opinion on the Gori 3 blade prop?

Hi Dale: We tested one of the Gori props–I think it was a three blade version– on the Sundeer 64. It seemed to work fine in forward, but not as well as the Maxi Prop in reverse. As we felt the maneuverability of the Maxi Prop was very important, we stayed with the them. That was about six or seven years ago, so Gori may have something new out. I suspect both would be good choices.–Steve

“The 83ft-long (25m) wave-piercer...could easily be mistaken for the spawn of the Royal Navy with its unpainted battleship grey, all-aluminum body. But that day, in those conditions, it was the only boat that I would have wanted to climb aboard to face the English Channel.” --Motor Boat & Yachting
