There's no need for variable pitch -which is why you don't see it in
mega yacht thrusters

After hitting the lottery for big bucks, you have nearly completed
your 150' new sailing mega yacht. Included on your new toy are both a
bow and stern thrusters--for side-to-side control..

What sort of prop would you want if you were concerned about precise
speed control, and being able to back down nearly instantaneously?

Money is, of course not a concern.



Hydraulically controlled variable pitch.

BTW is this 150' yacht equipped with a rack of racing dinghies and a
retractable artificial beach?
