A watercraft trim system pivots a nozzle via a control unit to adjust operating angles based on detected conditions.
Intermediate compartment air pressure stays below seawater levels, reducing component count and simplifying maintenance access for propeller shaft sealing.
Indexed slots on the propeller hub modify limit stop abutment positions, resolving imprecise manual grub screw adjustments.
A vessel propulsion apparatus uses a forward bucket to tilt water streams from a deflector, generating lateral thrust for turning.
Adjustable biasing components on a movable nozzle resolve the contradiction between maneuverability and stability in personal propulsion devices.
A control system adjusts blade angles during watercraft stopping maneuvers to minimize the required stopping distance.
A watercraft propulsion system inverts impeller rotation via a disconnected direct linkage to clear jet clogs.
Movable venturi doors open apertures during reverse rotation to clear debris clogs and maintain thrust without manual hull access.
A control unit adjusts power to ship propellers based on real-time operating parameters.
