CP Propellers

We are a made to order business so every system is designed especially for the individual project. We have no “standard” system we pick of the shelf.

We deliver complete CP propulsion systems for nearly all types of vessels: Fishing boats, tugs, ferries, coasters, smaller tankers and pleasure boats.

VP and MP Propellers

The propeller blades are as standard mounted in a traditional split propeller hub. This is the VP system. But can also (for the larger sizes) be delivered in a bolted on version. We call this version MP for Multi Pitch.
There are several great advantages of the MP version:

  • It is possible to replace one blade without disassembly of the entire propeller hub.
  • Because of the good sealing system between the hub and blades means that the risk of contamination to the sea is minimal.
  • Grease lubrication is only necessary every 5 years.

Our propellers have a simple but sturdy design with only mechanical parts in the propeller hub. Our design with grease filled hubs enables a design without any critical seals and thus avoids leakages.

We are a leading manufacturer of CP propulsion systems for larger sailing yachts which require feathering propellers for minimum drag when under sail.
