Use the displayed diameter options as the starting point, then confirm pitch and final configuration from your boat data before ordering. Field What to verify Propeller family 3-Blade FlexOfold folding propeller Mounting family Confirm shaft or saildrive fitment during quote Listed diameter options Use the visible size options on this page, then confirm pitch by quote. Pitch Confirmed during quote. The page options use "various pitches" because pitch depends on engine, gearbox or saildrive ratio, hull, and current RPM performance. Boat data needed Boat model, displacement, engine make and horsepower, maximum rated RPM, gearbox or saildrive model and ratio, shaft diameter or spline, current prop diameter/pitch, and whether the current prop reaches rated RPM under load. Service parts Use FlexOfold propeller parts after matching blade count, shaft/saildrive family, and part number. Current selectable options Current page option Visible values Title Default Title FlexOfold propeller FAQ Can I choose by boat length alone? No. Boat length is only a rough clue. Engine output, reduction ratio, hull shape, displacement, aperture clearance, and current RPM under load are what make the propeller fit correctly. Why is pitch not listed as a simple dropdown? Pitch is part of the configured quote. A propeller with the right diameter but wrong pitch can overload the engine or fail to use the available power. What should I send if I am not sure? Send the boat and engine data above plus photos of the existing propeller, shaft or saildrive, and any markings on the hub. That is enough to avoid most sizing mistakes.
