It offers more attractive pricing for these installations in the Variprop product range, SPW says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The propeller has also been designed with the new Gawn profile blades. This type of blade is known for its efficiency, performance and thus CO2 reduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Variprop GP-128 comes in three- and four-blade versions and is suitable for the new saildrive ZF 15, developed by ZF Hurth for machines up to 113kW, as well as for all shaft installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is available from 21in-25in (533mm-635mm), making it suitable for sailing yachts weighing up to 28 tonnes and with a maximum power of 120kW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith the Variprop GP-128, we are continuing our course of innovation to meet the needs of owners of modern yachts,\u201d says Claudia Adamczyk, managing director of SPW GmbH. \u201cThis new model enables us to also do justice to yachts with the modern new SD 15 saildrive from ZF, which has been designed for significantly higher performance. This means that we can also equip these yachts with optimum drive technology and thus increase efficiency and sustainability in water sports.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a standard installation, the Variprop GP-128 is also offered on Sol\u00e9 engines with outputs of 80kW and 90kW with the SD 15, among others. However, this model is suitable for any other motorisation and for yachts with shaft systems for the significantly improved sailing characteristics and excellent manoeuvrability of the vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Variprop GP-128 is available immediately both from SPW in Bremerhaven and from all authorised SPW GmbH dealers worldwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Variprop GP-128 is suitable for the new saildrive ZF 15<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":7422,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7421","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7421","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7421"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7421\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7424,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7421\/revisions\/7424"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7422"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7421"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7421"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7421"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
