Tiara is going to use it.


Forward facing propellors with no protection eh?

That ought to be interesting the first time you hit something solid at 40
knots.

Oh yeah, I read the part about the leg shearing off and not puncturing the
hull. Uh huh. And if that seal fails? Exactly how big is that mounting
hole? Bet 'ya can't jam a wooden plug in THAT slot.


Wouldn't it also throw debris upward into the hull as well if it caught the
upward spin of the prop?


That'd be delicious.

Your leg shears off cleanly, but the drive unit flips upward and punctures
the hull on the way off.
