RACING 2-BLADE
 If you are a serious racer, you’ll want the Racing Flexofold. Depending on size and speed, the drag will be 20 to 30% less than the Standard Flexofold. At the same time, the powering performance of the Racing Propeller will be only slightly less than the Standard Prop. We achieve this drag improvement by streamlining the blades and reducing the gap between them when folded. Yet, we still maintain much of the powerful shape that is responsible for the Standard Prop’s efficiency under power.
The Flexofold Racing Propellers are used as standard equipment on Farr 40s, Farr 36s, ID 35s and many other offshore one-designs. The Sydney 40 that won the 2001 Transpac was equipped with a Flexofold Racing Prop. And, the Swan 45, the high performance rocket ship from Nautor, has a Flexofold Racing Propeller as standard equipment.
The Racing Flexofold is available in 15, 16, 17 and 18 inch sizes, in both right and left hand, with several pitches in each diameter. It can be mounted on tapered shafts or sail drives.
