Feathering Marine Propellers                                         EWOL Beta Marine USA - jprop feathering propellers

Feathering propellers provide a host of advantages over folding and fixed blade propellers for sailing vessels, whether cruising or racing. Conceived and designed specifically for sailors, feathering propellers increase sailing speeds by reducing drag, they improve boat maneuverability (i.e. eliminating prop walk) and they reduce wear on drivetrain components. Our feathering propellers are easy to install, easy to adjust pitch, and built tough with premium materials to handle the rigors of ocean life.

We are proud to offer two superior lines of feathering propellers. EWOL and J-Props are two of the best products in the industry. Call us to discuss our propeller options that are suitable for your vessel.

Why a Feathering Propeller?

  • Increase Sailing Speeds –  Up to 1.5 knots more under sail
  • Greater Performance Under Power – Micrometric pitch settings allow you to optimize cruising speed
  • Improved Handling – Improved Backwards Thrust Virtually Eliminates “Prop Walk”
  • Easy Installation, Maintenance and Removal

EWOL & J-Prop Advantages

  • Easy Adjustment – No tools needed! Simply pull and turn hub to adjust pitch. No costly haul out necessary.
  • Precision machining. Use of helical gears ensures reduced wear and enhanced durability.
  • High quality materials. Super tough aluminum-bronze alloy and stainless steel construction offer enhanced corrosion protection and durability from prop strikes.
  • Low maintenance. Simply add grease annually (can even be done in the water).
