Thanks. In answer to your question, yes, but "torque steer" would not
work for me, as I would be apt to apply that to "prop walk". otn Frank Maier wrote: otnmbrd wrote: ...snip... With this in mind, for those with twin screw boats, if I told you that rudders were important tools of boat handling, but not to be considered for steering, rather for "thrust vectoring", when maneuvering around a dock, etc., when kicking an engine ahead, both positive and negative ...... would you understand what I was saying? Just a thought... many people would understand the concept of "torque steer" from their car-driving experience. Maybe that phrase would work. Personally, I wouldn't find "thrust vectoring" an informative phrase. Adn it seems to me that you're looking for a useful description rather than a "scientific" explanation, right? Frank |
