Shaftless propulsion system

First off, what is a shaftless impeller system?

A shaftless propulsion system typically refers to a type of marine propulsion system that doesn’t use a traditional shaft connecting the engine to the propeller. In conventional systems, a shaft extends from the engine to the propeller, transferring power to drive the boat forward. However, in a shaftless propulsion system, alternative technologies are employed to achieve propulsion without a direct mechanical connection.

One example of a shaftless propulsion system is the use of pod propulsion. Pod propulsion systems involve placing the propulsion unit (pod) outside the hull of the vessel, usually beneath it. These pods contain an electric motor or other propulsion mechanisms and can rotate, providing both propulsion and steering without the need for a shaft.

These systems offer advantages such as increased maneuverability, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced noise and vibration compared to traditional shaft-driven propulsion systems. They are commonly used in modern ships and boats for various applications, including cruise ships, ferries, and some naval vessels.
