FlexOfold folding propellers

FlexOfold folding propellers for sailboats

Choose your folding propeller family first: 2-blade, 3-blade, or 4-blade, in shaft-mount and saildrive versions.

The displayed diameter options are the starting point. Final pitch and configuration should be confirmed from your boat, engine, gearbox or saildrive ratio, current propeller, and actual RPM under load.

Choose the right starting point

Start with the mounting family and blade count, then confirm the exact size through the quote process. If you already own a FlexOfold and need service parts, use the parts collection instead.

FlexOfold propeller FAQ

Can I size a propeller from boat length alone?No. Boat length is only a starting clue. Engine horsepower, reduction ratio, displacement, hull shape, aperture clearance, and real RPM under load determine the correct propeller.
Why do the options say "various pitches"?Pitch is configured after your boat data is reviewed. A propeller with the right diameter but wrong pitch can overload the engine or leave power unused.
2-blade or 3-blade?Two blades usually prioritize drag reduction. Three blades add blade area for stronger thrust, maneuvering, and heavier cruising loads.
How much does a folding propeller cost?2-blade FlexOfold propellers start around $1,374 (shaft mount) and $2,300 (saildrive); 3-blade from $2,701; 4-blade from $3,588. The exact price depends on diameter and hub configuration, confirmed during sizing.
Can I buy online?Yes. Every FlexOfold family on this page is for sale online in US dollars with US-based support. Sizing is confirmed against your boat and engine data before your propeller ships, so the diameter and pitch are right the first time.
When should I use the parts collection?Use parts pages when replacing anodes, service kits, pullers, cover plates, nuts, or shock absorbers on an existing FlexOfold propeller.
