50 Years of
Propeller Innovation
Max Prop®srl is a world leader in the design of feathering propellers for sailing boats and today holds the largest number of patents worldwide in the field of marine propeller propulsion.
The Max Prop®philosophy has always been based on the principle of product excellence and longevity. Entirely made in Italy in all phases of production, Max Prop®propellers guarantee great resistance and reliability, tested in 50 years of navigation in the seas of the world. In contrast to current market trends, each Max Prop®propeller is made to last over time.
Max Prop ® propellers
Propeller ready to use
Max Prop ® propellers are delivered to the customer already assembled, greased, with the pitches set, ready to be used.
Installation on the propeller shaft is much safer and quicker than that of a fixed propeller, it takes a couple of minutes and can be done by anyone even directly in the water.
EVEN IN REVERSE
EFFICIENCY AND MANEUVERABILITY
Max Prop®propellers are designed and manufactured to guarantee maximum efficiency and maneuverability even in reverse. Folding propellers or fixed propellers are designed for navigation in forward gear rather than in reverse gear. The blades of the Max Prop®propeller, on the other hand, rotate mechanically maintaining the same thrust profile and, therefore, maximum efficiency, both in forward and reverse gear, with the least lateral movement of the boat.
MAXIMUM SAILING SPEED
When the vessel is sailing, the Max Prop ® propeller blades automatically arrange themselves in the feathering/flag position, cutting the flow of water like thin blades and allowing an increase in sailing speed of over 15% compared to some fixed propellers.
Furthermore, the innovative Max Prop® BOOMERANG ® propeller ensures that the blades are automatically positioned in the flag position even if the boat is stationary.
UNLIMITED RELIABILITY AND DURATION
The winning feature of Max Prop®propellers has always been the proverbial reliability over time, which comes from careful design combined with maximum precision in the choice of materials and workmanship. This is how the Max Prop®propeller has become the winning choice for the most demanding sailors.
POSSIBILITY OF MODIFYING
THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PROPELLER
All Max Prop®propellers are equipped with an innovative patented system which offers the possibility, should the user wish, to customize the propeller by varying the forward and reverse pitch, independently of each other. The pitches can be varied, according to the needs of each user, in a very fine and precise way, allowing variations in the navigation speed (at the same RPM), or vice versa variations in the engine RPM (at the same navigation speed), 2.5%. Changing the pitch is an extremely simple and quick operation, it can be carried out by anyone even with the boat in the water.
