Not sure why this reference to depth of a prop in relation to a hull.

schlackoff, can you say "end plate effect"?
Yup, "end plate effect" ...don't mean squat to me.
Now, take a ship in ballast (prop tips at the water surface) put it astern ....
sumbitch will torque to port (RT hand prop) to a fairtheewell.
Take the same ship and load it (prop tips now 30 underwater) put it astern ....
sumbitch will torque to port to a fairtheewell..... some cases more, some cases
less ...gots ta watch them some cases.
This what yer talkin about?
