Re: [Electric Boats] 3D printed propellers

 

The basic point is that almost certainly, the right size for props is
about double-triple in diameter to what we are now using.
Tugs come to mind.

And that, very likely, the total energy budget could decrease by 300%,
using a truly effective prop.

It would need a new mount.
However a new mount is much easier than buying triple the needed
batteries, most especially when thinking about long range vessels.
