\"Hovercraft<\/a>Piqua, Ohio, June 12, 2014<\/strong> \u2013 Hartzell Propeller\u2019s six-bladed structural composite propellers have been certified by the U.K.\u2019s Maritime and Coast Guard Agency for Griffon Hoverworks BHT 130 passenger watercraft. Hartzell’s props are the first certified structural composite hovercraft propellers.<\/p>\n

\u201cA hovercraft air cushion vehicle is flown by a pilot instead of a sea captain and Hartzell Propeller\u2019s aviation experience and technology are transferable to such seafaring vessels,\u201d said Hartzell Propeller President Joe Brown. \u201cActually, the unlimited life propellers that Hartzell developed for the Griffon Hoverworks BHT 130 are a derivative design of propellers flown today on Dornier 328 commuter airliners.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sea trials were conducted on a twin-engine powered British Hovercraft Technology (BHT) ship in the Solent, the strait separating the Isle of Wight from the English mainland near Southampton in the U.K. The trials, which lasted nearly five weeks, tested performance, propeller stresses, operability, function and endurance of the 11.5-foot diameter unlimited life composite propeller blades.<\/p>\n

The new Hartzell Propeller six-bladed props measurably improved performance with a 10 percent reduction in fuel consumption and reduced operating noise. The Hartzell system is designed to replace heavier wooden propellers, which are less reliable. Weight savings of Hartzell\u2019s hovercraft propeller is more than 100 pounds per prop compared to older technology.<\/p>\n
