Boats and motorcycles
"Jim" wrote in message hlink.net... "RCE" wrote in message ... Ok. Now that we all understand and agree on the mechanics of steering a motorcycle, let's consider this situation. Twin screw inboard. No wind. Little or no current. Helm hard over to port. Starboard engine at idle Starboard transmission in "forward". Port engine at idle Port transmission in "reverse". Which way will the boat move? Eisboch Being that you are slightly right leaning and have lost a significant amount of weight and your thrusters don't work, your boat will crab to port as long as you don't sneeze while facing to port or fart while facing to stbd. Bingo! (It will move sideways) Eisboch |
