Sharrow Marine propellers were met with skepticism when they first hit the scene. But Greg Sharrow convinced us. He related the backstory about the need to develop quieter, more efficient drone propellers for his business in the Hollywood film industry. He used that success to found Sharrow Marine, developing and marketing a truly unique product. But, there’s more to earning a Boating MPI award than simply being unique.

We met Sharrow on the water and ran the props ourselves. We conducted A/B tests with the same boat and motor on the same body of water on the same day. Compared to traditional props, the Sharrow props proved 10-mph faster at 3000rpm and 5 dBa quieter. Our testing confirmed it.

For this advance in propeller design and boat efficiency, Boating honors Sharrow Marine with a Marine Power innovation Award for 2022.
