How do CJR propellers and flow-aligned rudders improve the efficiency of your boat? We love the new video from Arksen, where Technical Director Jim Mair explains how our bespoke sterngear package is delivering optimum performance for the exceptional Arksen 85.
"When CJR Propulsion designed the propellers using Computational Fluid Dynamics, they've paired the rudders to match. The twisted profile of the rudder is optimised to match the wash coming from the propeller. So wherever that wash hits it, there's a much higher level of optimisation. That reduces noise and vibration, reduces fuel consumption, it just makes it a much more efficient rudder. It's also a pretty beautiful thing to look at."
