For 50 years, Danish company Gori Propeller has been one of the foremost names in folding marine propellers used on sailboat auxiliary motor drives. These propellers fold into a streamlined form when under sail, then open up like springtime blossoms the instant the motor drive kicks on. Gori's latest innovation, the Hybrid Propeller, is designed for electrified sail drives, giving captains the ab
Switzerland's ABB Marine has been inspired by "the dynamic motions of a whale's tail" for its multi-blade Dynafin propulsion concept, which is designed to "maximize propulsion efficiency and responsiveness" for small-to-medium vessels.Continue ReadingCategory: Marine, TransportTags: Shipping, Boating, Motor, Energy-efficient, 2025 Updates
Sharrow Marine has quietly been working to disrupt the marine industry with a reimagined propeller it calls the "future of propulsion." The tech originally looked like it might be too expensive and make/model-specific to see that future to fruition in a substantial way, but Sharrow has now introduced the more affordable, consumer-friendly MX-A. Less than half the price of previous models, the lat
A new propeller created by the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) coated with a skin mimicking that of a dolphin holds the promise of significantly reducing fuel consumption and emissions in large cargo ships.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: Shipping, Dolphin
Torqeedo, a major innovator of all-electric boat motors, is working on a new version of its iconic bright-orange propeller, crafted from 100% recycled plastic. Not only will its future electric marine-drive products eliminate carbon emissions from the air around them, but they'll also reduce the amount of plastics in the world's oceans.Continue ReadingCategory: Marine, TransportTags: torqeedo, Ya
French electric marine drive specialist BlueNav is preparing to put a more natural spin in its lineup. The all-new Whale Design propeller features blades that follow the contours of a whale to improve system efficiency. The unique propeller is set to debut in the company's electric outboard and inboard drive systems to further improve upon the efficiency and versatility they add to existing boats
The multi-award-winning Sharrow Propeller family is growing. The new Sharrow CX incorporates the company's toroidal design into a contra-rotating propeller set. The sculptural new prop doubles up on looped blades with the promise of bringing Sharrow's efficiency-boosting, noise-cutting benefits to the already efficient world of contra-rotating outboards and sterndrives from top names like Volvo a
French startup FinX was founded on the idea that the best way to preserve nature is to look to it for inspiration. Toward that end, it's developed an outboard motor that allows boats to move through the water more naturally and efficiently, similar to actual creatures of the sea. It cuts out the basic propeller and replaces it with a fin-like undulating membrane directly inspired dolphins and jel
VORTEX is inspired by the fluid mechanics and the manufacturing processes of ship propeller. The swirling structure is used to capture the beauty of fluid flow, and the features of metal material are meant to catch the track of the time, creating unique texture and vitality.
