Michigan KAPLAN Propellers
The Kaplan propeller is ideal for Trawlers, Draggers, and Tugs, maximizing thrust efficiency by switching from an open to a ducted propeller design.
Who Should Buy KAPLAN Propellers?
Vessels operating at low speeds can benefit from the use of a ducted propeller, which is a Kaplan style propeller operating inside a Kort nozzle. Switching to a ducted propeller from an open propeller is one of the most effective ways to get more thrust from a vessel for the same amount of input power.
