Why ask questions if the answers provided by some of the most experienced guys on the forum are of no interest to you? It would be a lot more...
Well, actually the market is huge, it's the adoption that's failing. What percentage of comparable work boars in Europe use controllable pitch...
That's very cool @Steve W .
A huge market for a proper 2 speed transmission. It's a no-brainer. Unless you're a transmission manufacturer.

And definitely partly submerged props @Furkan . That's a surface piercing prop, pattent 1911. Used in the fastest boats.
Of course. Natural roll frequency corresponds to a particular sea state. I really need to be more precise. Like when I said that men are...
Jets in testing show less range and speed than a comparable prop setup, assuming it is properly designed and executed. I actually suggested...
@Dolfiman , I'm skeptical about the claims of salesmen. Salesmen are almost by definition professional liars. Certainly the notion that a 750W...
@Algie Bennett , you need a boat that can carry a massive load, and still plane gracefully. You need a .... (wait for it) Sea Sled.
