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.


For main prop definitely CPP. I'm not sure I'd want just hub hydraulic
control though. Might be better to have a servo that can be overridden
by human muscles -just in case.
