I wondered if anyone out there can help me. I am trying to find out about steerable propellers (just like Azipods or Thrustmaster) but in the 15 to 40 hp range. All these other units seem to be designed for larger vessels. The design I have in mind is a 20 PAX ferry that needs to be very manoeuvrable, and was considering placing a 20 hp azimuthing prop at either end for push-pull. Diesel-electric propulsion is preferred.
