OK, I'm familiar with twins, and their oposite rotating props for
steering. But I've seen craft with three and even 5 outboards.

for simplicity sake if looking fromt he stern, the starboard engine
props to the right, and the port engine counter-rotates tot he left,
then which way is th center engine (or engines)

just curious.

Heh, now that's funny! ROFL!
