    Hello Everyone,

    We are seeking an engineer to assist us with our initial design idea for a rotatable pod in cast aluminum that we are looking to commercialize for an electric vessel. Currently, we do have the initial design, specs including the propeller in SolidWorks. This initial design is fully functional on a 21-foot monohull.

    Our hope is to find an engineer experienced in "lower unit" mechanics and to better our design and have it built in cast aluminum. We have an initial need for 30-40 units.

    Due to the sensitivity of our project, please PM me for more details if you are an experienced engineer or know of one in this field. Thanks to the community in advance for your assistance. Cheers!
    Stephen
