Composite carbon fiber is the future. Carbon fiber props are lightweight, flexible, cost effective and extremely efficient. Because of this, carbon fiber propellers have been installed on ships and luxury yachts achieving remarkable success. Today more products are being made from composite carbon fiber because of it's superior performance and durability. Marine technology has also turned to carbon fiber for developing propellers, yacht masts, hulls and many other products for vessels. |

|
More Speed (10%+) • The flexibility of the blades allows the yacht to achieve her top speeds at lower RPM rather than full throttle. |
|
Fuel Savings (10%) • The propeller has the optimum pitch across a wide operating range resulting in increased fuel savings. |
|
Noise Reduction & No Prop Vibration • The carbon fiber propeller design allows each blade to be identical in size, weight and shape which dramatically reduces vibration and noise caused by metal props. |
| Greater Strength • Carbon fiber composites are ten times stronger than steel, yet are still five times lighter. |
| Changeable Blades • The Contur® propeller consists of a metallic hub and carbon fiber blades. If a blade is damaged it is easily replaced either at dockside or by a diver. |
| Reduced Shaft Weight • Carbon fiber propellers are extraordinary light weight, approximately 1/3 of a standard metal. This reduces the stress on the stuffing boxes and propeller bracket bearings. |
| Impact Resistant • A combination of high strength material at the edge of the blades guarantees a very high resistance to impact thereby reducing blade damage as a result of grounding or contact with submerged objects. |
| Low Maintenance • The propeller leaves the factory with the carbon fiber reinforced blades covered with a hard polished surface so there is no further need to apply an antifouling or protective paint. |
| Increased Range • Less fuel consumption means an increase in range of approximately 15%. The Contur® propeller provides faster acceleration along with a significant reduction in fuel consumption. |
| Cost Effective • Contur® propellers cost approximately 25% more than the best metal. They pay for themselves in fuel savings, maintenance savings and immeasurable increased comfort. The additional cost is more than made up for by increased efficiency. |
| Certified ISO 9001 • Designing such advanced propellers is not enough but obtaining certification is the ultimate in product recognition. |
