I wonder if 4 propellers churning like crazy so close together is
somewhat inefficient. due to cavitation. Not my field but I always
heard the mechanical engineers talk about it with regard to impellers.

But 4 on the transom sure is impressive.

I don't know either Bob, is 4 that much better then 3 for all the money
those things cost!
