Designer's Checklist No.1
Azimuth Stern Drive Tugs


PROPULSOR ROOM SPACE




Recommended minimum space above
the propulsor is abt. 300 mm

Propulsor Room Space
There should be enough internal height in the propulsor room to allow for installation as well as maintenance of the units. Recommended is a height of 200 …300 mm above the units. A separate bolted-on maintenance hatch can be installed above the unit if enough height is otherwise not available. The Steerprop Azimuth Propulsors are designed to be as short as possible, i.e. the internal height requirement is minimised and thus the units are suitable also for low deck heights.
