The fewer vibrations a boat subjects you to, the more pleasant it is to be aboard. And while waves are certainly a big part of that equation, the boat’s power system is responsible for creating ...
The notion of using surface drive systems and surface-piercing propellers (SPPs) was first initiated for shallow-draft boat propulsion 1, as the process of increasing speed in conventional propellers ...
Oscar Propulsion Limited and the University of Strathclyde have come up with a way to reduce underwater radiated noise from ship propellers. According to Oscar Propulsion, its patented PressurePores ...
